Canadian company invents a new way to search the Net

“‘The way it works is simple,’ said Grad Conn, OpenCola’s chief executive. ‘Create a folder on your desktop. Drag a file into that folder. The folder automatically fills up with other files that are similar. If you take something out of the folder, it doesn’t find stuff like that anymore. You can create as many folders as you want by setting them up yourself or by adopting them from other users.’”
