before search engines, we basically had databases with hand-picked URLs.
and you would travel through it by narrowing down the categories.
ie. Movies -> Horror -> Friday the 13th
this is how Yahoo.com started out (i saw a documentary on it
)
anyways, as a programmer, its pretty logical to think that with the advent of internet, search-engines will soon emerge.
the biggest problem with search-engines is having 1billion+ websites, organizing them, sorting them, and having the relevant data be immediately accessible for the users.

Well... I'd think having one master server to handle a certain number of queries from the user, and then sending them to the database field wouldn't be too complicated. If you'd seen it... Google has countless server fields, each with hundreds of servers, and each server has about 40 or so blades. Each blade handles a specific number of websites and documents, and it only has to process only the keywords then return the matching addresses.
Popular websites can be mirrored on multiple blades. Another server will process the output (pick out duplicating entries) and send it back to the user.
Server fields can be split into two, and while one half is working for user queries, the other will be looking for info updates. Then when one blade is free, it's swapped by an updated blade and the updated blade will then become the service blade, and the service blade will then update. Updates can be queried up by another server, so that the blades don't have to do anything but write... and read.
Well, basically, that's the idea. Since a blade only has to read and write from a small database, it's blazing fast.

I was refering to your post where you said you used to stare at the browser wondering what would you type next. I was doing exactly that, remembered that you pointed it out, felt silly, then smiled. That's all.
Supposedly I wrote what happened today as a joke but oh well
