Public mUps code and related pages removed
mUps (short for mUlti-Purpose Text Database System) was a set of PHP files that allowed to set up a simple database system that worked on plain text files, offering basic CRUD functions. The code was publicly available and licensed under GPL. In May 2012, I removed the public pages, basically because I consider the code to be of minor use for anyone (except myself). Besides, it does have significant design flaws. Archived pages are available thanks to archive.org.

ChooSE: removed Scroogle + Yauba, added DuckDuckGo + StartPage
Unfortunately, Scroogle (link to Wikipedia entry) had to give up. Yauba didn't stay up long. DuckDuckGo and the ixquick-powered StartPage look promising.
Added 2012-03-14: An interesting thread on StackExchange's IT security forum: Why would someone trust DuckDuckGo or other providers with a similar privacy policy?
