:boost_requested: A few months ago I was wondering if it's possible to create federated search indexes to solve the scale problem when building searches. From what I understand, this is one of the big factors behind search becoming essentially a monopoly. (The other one is dealing with spam).
I have not got very far beyond the "wondering" stage but if anyone has a better grasp of the technical concerns involved and how to get funding for such a project I would be interested to hear about it
