Tim Finin recently announced a new version of Swoogle, THE Semantic Web search engine. After some initial hiccups the service now seems to work fine, again. Thanks to the UMBC eBiquity team, you're doing a great job!
One thing puzzles me. Though I read the manual (which seems a bit outdated), I did not figure out how to find certain instances. Take for example the query 'return all documents that have a foaf:mbox = abc@example.org in it'. I'll continue the experiments ;)
Just browsed through flickr's services, and found:

This nice litte gadget allows for retrieving photos by either sketching them or uploading a reference image. Fun, fast, and addictive ;)
A new Wikipedia search engine, Wikiseek, is avialable:
"WikiSeek is a search engine that has indexed only Wikipedia sites, plus sites that are linked to from Wikipedia. It serves two purposes. First, it is a much better Wikipedia search engine than the one on Wikipedia (and has been built with Wikipedia’s assistance and permission). Second, the fact that it also indexes sites that are linked to from Wikipedia means that, presumably, it will return only very high quality results and very little spam. It won’t show every relevant result to a query, but it will certainly give a good overview of a subject without all the mess."
