I was reading this book called 'In The Plex' which talks about the beginnings of Google, how no one thought of using back-links in ranking web pages and how Larry Page used it to make Page rank it's a fascinating book to read, and surprised to see how everyone missed an idea like that.

Fast forward to today, has search reached its climax? Can't there be any other search engine that will deliver better results than Google? There was a time when people talked about social search for a while but that too died down.

So is there a new frontier for search? Will there be a better search engine in the next few decades?

I am having a lot of free time during this period but I don't seem to get any good ideas into my head like it used to be when I was busy.

What do you guys do when you don't have any good idea? How do you look for inspiration? Have you guys faced similar situations?

Facebook, Microsoft are putting lot of effort behind pushing bots inside a conventional ui.

What's your idea about bots? Worth investing?
