The first Flash Search Engine is an Environmental Search Engine!! http://www.greenplanetsearch.com is now live!
When Mike Haney first presented the idea behind the technology behind
www.greenplanetsearch.com, he was laughed down. Virtually, of course. “Everyone can
dream,: scoffed one, erroneously.
A few people were intrigued. The combination of Haney’s vision of a Flash-driven search
engine, and the plan to create a dazzling environmental education resource, eventually
attracted a loose-knit corps of collaborators, most of whom have never met in person first
among them Andre Roussille, a French computer programmer, and now part owner of the
company.
The upshot from this collaboration, apart from the stunningly beautiful homepage, is the
only people involved in the creation of the search engine, is that the only people involved
in the development devoted environmentalists, who genuinely wish to disseminate good
information to students and educators.
Later, through a similar serendipity, Mr. Haney teamed up with a veteran journalist who
agreed to lend his services to the site, building from scratch a source of environmental
news and policy analysis.
Advertisers will be strictly vetted by the companies shareholders, limited to companies
that are making a meaningful contribution the planet’s health.
The final result, which was launched this week, is the culminating of thousands of
hours of work, and more than a few false starts.
It boasts easily navigable information, experiments, lesson plans, presented in an interactive and graphically enhanced format,
and has an exclusive global climate change resource section for teachers and kids.
