Carved appears to be much like Bing, with some additional features. "Carved evaluates the best search results from across the major search engines of the Web and then customizes their best results based on your interests and preferences, as well as those of your friends (and other people whom you do not know yet).". The key to get the best custom results and recommendations is completely fill out your profile and also using the voting system (to the carved namely what you do and don't like).
Here you can enter a slogan, bio, forum title, signature of the forum and answer some questions about yourself. More you fill in the best that other (community) learn more about you. If you connect to your Facebook account, carved can get most of these information in your profile there.
The research, it are not all the advanced options, type in your query and go. There are enough little different locations in the results page. You have your regular results with useful information under each such as tags and tagscore (see image below). You can choose or the result is relevant, see other users on carved that marked the result of a bookmark, bookmark yourself and share on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace or email.
Below your actual results, you'll see some Web site recommendations that can be of interest to you. You can also click for more. More you use carved and voting system, more these results will be more relevant.
On the right side, you'll see recommended users that you will like to connect with. You will also have the opportunity to invite some of your Facebook friends (that is if you have connected to your account).
You'll see this button almost all your search results. It is a way to get recommendations custom mode full window (such as StumbleUpon) and see what other Web sites you'll love. By clicking on the button "get some" opens a full website with the carved toolbar and the top of the page.
You can like/dislike websites, bookmarket, share, search and click on "get some More" to go to the following Web site. You can also download the carved toolbar or install the bookmarklet if you want to be able to find and interact with carved of any web page. This is the best way to let carved know what you like, so it can recommend relevant results for you in the future.
Honestly, I am not a big fan of social search engines. Most of the time I look at to quickly obtain the necessary information and keep this movement. The recommendations are a nice touch, but it will take some fine-tuning (that most people may not have time for) for those specific. A community in a search engine seems unnecessary, but I don't know that much this will be a useful means of connecting with others. It's really all just according to your preferences and the way which seek you.
So would you prefer that? Is carved something that you see yourself using on a regular basis?
