The sketch style video, plays on the words really well and is very funny in certain parts. It also spans the length of the full song and includes Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne’s verses. The artist has another video in his catalogue, Like A G6 by Far East Movement.

MC Hammer Developing Search Engine

October 20, 2011 in Music, Technology

MC Hammer also known as Mr “Can’t Touch This” spoke at the Web 2.0 conference yesterday to explain his vision for a new search engine.

WireDoo is it’s name and “Search once, see what relates” is the slogan, although I would have been happier with “Stop! Can’t search this” followed by a “It’s Hammertime” each time a user clicked the search button.

All the joking aside, MC Hammer is on to something with WireDoo by stretching beyond conventional keyword searches and involving relationships for relevant items. He provided an example of a search for “home”. In addition to the normal results you obtain, there will also be pages for “community, schools, financing, location, and area insurance prices”.

WireDoo is currently in development and unavailable to the public. Google should keep their eyes open here because it would be better for Google to offer a relational search option than users visiting two different websites for search results. Potential future buyout? well you heard here first.
