Grokker is a good clustering search tool.

For those of you who haven't seen it yet, Grokker is a nice tool to visually see the results from your searches. If clusters the search results as some of the other search engines have started to do. If you've ever gone to Clusty.com, you will see a similar type of result. What I like about the Grokker tool is that it's very easy to drill down into the results you want and presents them in a nice way. It gives a lot of flexibility with the results to see what you want to see. When you drill down to the ultimate result you want, you will see a sidebar page which will give you that web site in a thumbnail version which you can click on to go to it. It's a helpful tool which will give people the option to see things in that context of groupings rather than just raw listings. I think this is a trend for the future to cluster results into logical groups. Right now, when people are searching the lists are endless and a little bit confusing. By clustering them together, people can get the information they need in a specific area which will give them more of the results that they would want. Before, all you could do was go through pages and pages of results, but now you can get clustered results and that should give better direction to people doing a search.
