A friend of mine pointed me to the idea of building a distributed search engine (similar to [EMAIL PROTECTED]), where the crawling or for instance the real time indexing of weblogs (http://www.weblogs.com) and the searching
could be distributed on various machines provided by "volunteers".
To start the thinking very pragmatically: Is it possible to merge different Lucene indices?
Btw, I have found these projects, which sound very similar, but seem to be a bit outdated:
http://www.hyperbee.com
http://harvest.sourceforge.net/harvest/doc/index.html
Thanks
