"Welcome to Krugle - your place to find code and technical content"

Krugle wants to be the Google of software code search and recently has started to become the go-to search site for open-source developers by partnering with important websites, including SourceForge.net, the leading site for open-source software projects, to include Krugle search.

Cofounder Ken Krugler says that Krugle resolves a very important problem for developers: They spend  a lot of their time searching for lines of code to perform certain functions that may already exist on the web. Krugler says that there is no sense  writing code that has already been written.

Software developers mainly visit SourceForge to find a project similar to the one they are  doing but they sometimes have to download the whole project.

With Krugle they can search through the project to see if it useful for them without downloading it entirely.

"If you could save 10 percent of that [search] time off, that is a huge productivity improvement either in costs savings, revenue generation or just spare time."

Krugle's next project will be search for open-source development within enterprises: An enterprise product currently in beta is going to be released this year.
