Ok this is a little OT but I thought it was a nice change of pace. The BBC has recently released a new search engine. Apparently they did a survey and discovered that alot of people are dissatsified with some services out there.
What is nice to see is that the front end is in Perl. I can't speak for the back end. Given the direction a lot of companies are taking (.NET, Java etc) its good to see Perl still being taken seriously. Shame it doesn't list Perl monks yet :P
You can try it out
Or read their news article about it
It made my advocacy in the work place a little easier.
