you could use google's referential scheme to present related stuff.  so if
someone accumulates a few sites that are related, you can suggest other
things that are related by subject but not explicit links.  "you're
obviously looking for this sort of thing, but you won't find links to
these other sites in the ones you've got already."

the subject-relational part is pretty significant in terms of effort, but
might be possible to search through for keywords, then search the keywords
via google, and check correpondences between result sets.  yeah, i'm sure
that's way too heavy and inelegant for a lot of different reasons.  :-)

i have no idea where you're going with this, but it's an idea.

adult content filter.  this has nothing to do with u9k, but you could
generate results that only list adult content without too much trouble.
