BEIJING, July 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sogou, a Chinese Internet company, has recently released a new product which is designed based on the Discovery engine technology. The Discovery engine is considered one of the killer-level technologies that overturn current search engine technology. Previously, Google released a similar product but it failed. Sogou's new product closely combined search technology with Internet Explorer for the very first time in history, pushing information to users that is based on the information searched. The product will possibly change the traditional "search frame + main words" mode.
Sogou is a sub company of Sohu and it has the third biggest number of users in China. The main products of Sogou include input software, web browsing, and the search engine. On the 10th of July, Sogou released a new product - Sogou for Internet Explorer, which carries the Discovery engine technology. The featured function of the product is "Sogou Discovery," which is able to recommend users relevant information smartly in multiple areas such as news, shopping, travel, and more. Users can acquire the information directly.
The Discovery engine represents a new trend in search engines. Previously, Google released a similar product - Google Related, achieving simple information recommendations. However, Google shut this product down during their Spring Cleaning in 2012. Although the Google Related team claimed that the shut-down was temporary and would bring a more exciting product soon, it has not happened so far. Moreover, in 2011, two other famous Chinese search engine companies, Baidu and Qihoo360, also claimed that they would make attempts to do some breakthrough investigation in this area.
