A perfect tool for busy moms, Goby.com (pronounced GO-be) is a new one-of-a-kind search engine that helps you find fun new ways to spend your free time. It searches more than 300 different categories of “things to do” from zoos and aquariums to playgrounds and children’s museums. Goby poses three questions: What, Where and When. By answering just two of the three questions, you can instantly receive an easy-to-read results page that includes not only detailed information about attractions, activities, locations and events, but also an interactive map and photos from sites like Google and Flickr. Check out Goby.com today and be inspired by the myriad of things you can do!
Goby.com contacted me and asked me to share a giveaway with my readers. The first thing I did was check out their site. Goby is a great site for families or anyone looking to go on a trip. It is a search engine that about finding things to do. I found the search to be accurate. I think that with google and other search engines you have to be specific, and it’s hard sometimes to create the results you are actually looking for. Goby organizes your query results in a meaningful way instead of spitting back a series of web pages that happen to contain your key words. For taking trips and finding things to do, Goby is the place to go. Goby was co-founded by Mark Watkins and Vince Russo from Endeca and Lycos, respectively, and noted tech entrepreneur and MIT professor Mike Stonebraker.
