   KUMO is a new Generation Search Engine. Currently Microsoft is using the www.kumo.com URL for internal testing purposes only.
   
   Different resources claimed that the most interesting tool of KUMO is the search categories. Instead of a set of standard categories like "images," "video" etc, Kumo uses "categories directly related to your search."
   
   For example, a search for the term "Bose Lifestyle 48" results in categories for images, review, manual, prices, and repair. The search example for Taylor Swift, on the other hand, contains search categories to help you find song lyrics, tickets, albums, biography and so on. Semantic categories are a great idea, and most likely a result of Microsoft's purchase last year of the semantic search engine Powerset.
