Netherlands-based Scoofers.com claims that it can provide more relevant search results by filtering in the popularity of links (what Scoofers calls 'expert knowledge') posted on sites like Digg, StumbleUpon and del.icio.us with Google's Custom Search Engine service.

Scoofers founder Jeroen Maljers writes in the company blog that thousands of websites have been refined and labeled for easy sorting -- including top level categories "Travel", " Electronics",  "Party and dining" and "Fashion Shopping" to allow users to better focus their searches.

Type in "PC upgrade", for example, and Scoofers will allow a user to refine the results to the category of 'magazine' , but also (oddly) provide a filter 'For singles' and 'For teens'.

But with some awkward phrases and typos, Scoofers feels like it needs a little more time in the oven.

Maybe it's better in Dutch?
