About Baypup

Baypup is a real-time, location aware whole web internet search engine.

Baypup is an advanced computing platform designed to gather, store, sort and search massive sets of data including the internet. Baypup respects privacy. Our goal is to provide access to high quality information, search results, and web services as an alternative to “Big Search”. We provide these results without bias or malice. If you find something in our index that shouldn’t be there please contact us!

Design

Baypup was designed by Jason Stubblefield for Flatland Industries in California as a demonstration of advanced distributed computing and has since grown into a functional and increasingly useful search engine.

Key Accomplishments

We have made the following key technological accomplishments critical to the operation of a large scale hypertext search engine:

> Deployed a semantic, organic, location aware real time search engine.

> Deployed a horizontally scalable, bug free, computing computing cluster with accompanying distributed file system.

> Demonstrated a 25 million page internet search index that delivers fast and relevant search results.

> Demonstrated a working, targeted hypertext ad distribution platform capable of serving targeted text advertising to search results pages.

> Created a working online advertising store where ads can be purchased, created and managed.

> Launched a production recipe meta search engine.

Baypup is not designed to be a “Google killer” any more than OSX is a “Windows killer”, however, we do hope to provide an elegant and useful alternative to Google, Yahoo and the other big players “that just works”.
