One of my mates tested Zanran and came back with the comment “seems to only find PDFs.”
Planning to look at it this weekend, but that would pretty limit its usefulness.
The “lower half problem” doesn’t just go away. The added power just made the corruption and “lower half problem” harder to cover up.

A little late to the party here, but I just did a brief review at my site here:

klhoughton is right about the search results, but the tool is more useful than that would imply – pdfs aren’t original data, it’s true, but they are curated in a way that original data are not given that they show you how other people have interacted with a given data set. To me that’s almost as useful, from a research perspective.
Good reply on the aluation blog: http://bit.ly/ioaoTM
