This is pretty cool looking - I love stuff like this. Wish there was some more examples

Well, you can read about that here : http://www.skrenta.com/2008/01/why_search.html and here : http://www.skrenta.com/2008/01/about_the_name_blekko.html

What's Blekko? The name not only doesn't mean anything but sounds like the sound of disgust "Blech", and blekko.com doesn't point to anything interesting.

That said, their server setup is pretty nifty.

I knew I remembered the name blekko from somewhere.

It was a popular telnet destination in the late 90s. Not sure if it is related to this.
