A shorter URL for the above link:
Used Ask lately? Ask, once called Ask Jeeves, has been around for several
years. (As you might expect it's at http://www.ask.com.) Ask started out
as a natural language search engine -- you typed in questions and got
search results that had been found by a Web editor. Now it's more of a
regular full-text engine, but Ask can also provide some very extensive
answers to simple questions.
The most recent example of that is Ask's new "movies" feature. Type movies
into the Ask.com search engine, and you'll get a results page with another
search form at the top. This search form will ask you for a zip code and
keywords for finding movies.
You can search for movies by keyword, which'll take you to the Internet
Movie Database. You can search for movie reviews by keyword, which'll take
you to the Movie Review Query Engine.
