Okay, yes I know… I also thought this was a hoax. But I actually did more research on it and came across the below video in which MC Hammer is interviewed by O’reilly Media at the Web 2.0 Summit 2011. I was quite amazed by the “Can’t Touch This” star’s knowledge of tech and his different thinking around search.

His search engine called WireDoo will offer more filtered and targeted search results, which will return not only your query results but also related content to your query which he refers to as “deep and relationship search”.

The search engine market is a very hard one to crack with the giant Google, Yahoo! and Bing.You can watch the below video for more insight on this new upcoming search engine and check out the site here (not launched yet, just a login page and weird logo), and you can judge for yourself.
