quintura Quintura is a visual search engine. It extracts keywords from search results and builds a word cloud. By clicking words in the cloud, you refine your query. ‘Quintura For Kids’ has just been released and from what I have seen it looks great. A great tool for helping children to define their search and to teach the concept of key-words.
