Thoughts on Kosmix.com

    I just read about kosmix.com, and it seems pretty interesting. I see that it just pulls in results from other sites like google, wikipedia, youtube, etc. But, it seems to pull in pretty relevant information for the searches I have performed. Alexa shows a pretty steady growth in popularity.

    I have not seen any referrals from it, though I do pretty well for several search terms.

    I do not find it to be that helpful in content or layout. I do not really think it will go very far.

    aggregating several specialist sites for searfh results is a good idea but google is better for me.

    Still feels minor in comparison to Google/Yahoo/MSN when searching for something. No way near to any big search engine in terms of content and clarity.

    Kosmix is a Venture Capital Play.
    not for humans.
    only for a bubble bound pump and dump.
