Ugandan search engine Mountbatten

mb

Mountbatten indexes the Ugandan part of the Internet. There are quite a few webservers inside Uganda that contain information that is very relevant for people in Uganda and that perform significantly faster for visitors that connect through one of the local ISPs.

Mountbatten offers this search service both for Ugandan web surfers as well as for Web site owners with a Ugandan website.

To search, just type in a few words.

• Results only include pages that contain all of the query words.

• Use quotes around words that must occur adjacently, as a phrase, e.g., “Apple”.

• Punctuation between words also triggers phrase matching. So searching for http://www.data.co.ug/ is the same as searching for “http www data co ug”.

• Searches are not case-sensitive, so searching for QuEEN is the same as searching for qUeen.

• You can prohibit a term from resulting pages by putting a minus before it, e.g., searching for soccer -ball will find pages that discuss soccer, but don’t use the word “ball”.

That’s it!
