I thinks its worthy to mention the app which gives some taste of better Google
A nice mention of cyber and IPFS on the tedermint twitter:
After a long year of work preparing for euler-5, we have launched it. Here is a playlist of all the video materials, containing IPFS hashes from our tesnet launch.
Our bi-weekly dev-log, including the great web journal, ongoing work on integration of IPFS node into cyberpage app and much more
How do we use IPFS to build a general-purpose search distributed computer? An in-depth article on how does it all work together
We proudly release our takeoff proposal! We propose 27/04/20 for the long anticipated date. Over the 3 years of hard work cyber managed to accommodate: @tendermint_team, @cosmossdk, @AragonProject, @IPFSbot & ETH . And turn dreams into code. Read the proposal here

Over 125,000 IPFS CIDs added to Cybers network as part of its incentivized tournament, Game of Links, in which users add IPFS CIDs to build a decentralized knowledge graph, which is used by the search engine
Why does a cyberlink point to a CID, not an IPFS content path? The latter is usually whatâs used for locating a content on IPFS. For example, by resolving a path to a CID the content may lose its assets:
/ipfs/bafybeif2waumsk2wfymvlykkkvnxfyu5a6uqfclhzptmxasotb647tn6oi/2020-05-19-road-to-dht
/ipfs/bafybeie2sey4qyvagab2xl4h5g46hnjceajqyq3xofc6qcsdunxraznclm
Shouldnât a search engine be able to navigate to a complete web page rather than just a file or a directory?
Thanks for amazing question. You understand correctly that cyberlink is a link between CIDs (without path). Its is a strong design consideration because size of cyberlink have to be fixed (bounded). Itâs crucial for effective computation with consensus computer. Also it has a huge benefit for blockchain based AI applications such as constant running time and memory use.
It is not an issue because if you want to cyberlink with path you have to compute CID from the string with path.
Just a note that there are over 265k cyberlinks created as of now. That is some amazing progress. This means that gradually cyber can be added as a search engine to the many IPFS crawlers out there. Still early days, but its taking off. For anyone interested in the stats
Ever wondered how to make a Cyber wallet? Create a cyberlink? Check your gift? Get tokens? Run a node? Become the master of the Great Web?
All of those answers and a 1000 more in our Homestead documentation
We are proud to welcome the 1st use case of Cyber as a decentralized google (not Google!). The distributed IPFS-based web browser galacteek, now has support to search within cyber! A truly historical day for decentralization of the web!
Latest release of the browser: https://github.com/pinnaculum/galacteek/releases
