Liquisearch

Liquid
I'm reading the preview of Oryx and Crake on Amazon and I come across this line:
It is the strict adherence to daily routine that tends towards the maintenance of good morale and the preservation of sanity.
The speaker tells us it feels like a quote from a book, so to Google my friends, whereupon a link to Liquisearch pops up, where I find that that the line comes from Slaughterhouse Five by Kirk Vonnegut. I read that like a zillion years ago. The line is spoken by a British officer to a group of Americans arriving at a German POW camp.

Liquisearch seems to be new. Their home page proclaims it to be "a new phase in internet search technology", but there are no links to anything else. There is not even a search box, so right now it appears to just be an extension to a conventional search engine. There is a search box on the pages delivered by Google, so once you get in you can wander around. We shall see if it turns out to be useful.
