Will SearchMe.com become the next [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/you-com)? Searchme.com is a visual search engine that allows you to see the web page before you click it. SearchMe.com hails themselves as “The visual search engine for a visual world.”

The first image in the gallery is an example of what I saw when I searched for TrendHunter.com at SearchMe.com. You can also [search for and visualize images](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lensoai), video, music, news, and shopping sites before visiting their respective pages.

I’ve tried SearchMe.com a few times this morning and bookmarked it to my favorites, but I don’t feel ready to leave Google. Maybe they will team up and offer the features at Google? Not impossible.
