Using the major search engines for info on clojure language, tools and
dev practices is trying at best for beginning and intermediate devs,
so I've worked toward building a searchable database that I think will
yield more precision at the cost of less recall, i.e. more usable /
relevant hits per page but not up to the minute like google.  I've
used different heuristics to screen /sample the universe of URL's
talking about clojure (google group, IRC channel, blogs), build a
topic map, and extract text from those source docs to the topic map.

At present, i'm hitting the database against 2 fulltext indexers,
Sphinx and ferret.  These indexers have a rough time with words like
macro, i.e. you'll get different results with "debug macro" "debug
macros" and "debug macro's", so, uh, keep trying. I would get better
results with SOLR instead of ferret, just that my little $20/month VPS
won't run mysql, tomcat and rails very well.

So i'd like people to try it out, give me feedback (yah, the
stylesheet and UI need work).  For now i'm focused on the language and
implementation, less focused on IDE's/editors, web app frameworks,
ORM's, leiningen, incanter, stuff like that.

 I'm collecting the raw data for people that want it, it'll have the
Creative commons license when i figure that out, email me if you'd
like to have it.
