    never heard of it before this posting... i checked it out and looks good... do they have a niche or are they breaking into the search world as another engine competing against google/yahoo/live?

    It is really nothing. Look at it latest press release from 2005! Many links are broken within the information about the site, price are inconsistent (some places say it costs $19.95 while other say it costs $39.00). Basically it looks like a dead site that just sits there hoping someone will actually spend some money with it and/or possibly use it. It is sad as it looks like it might have had some potential at one point (pretty ambitious early on). Too bad.

    Could have been something, it's been around a fair while since mid 2002 and got some talk about it on forums and stuff, but not doing anything at this time.

    Broken links are bad, but broken press page links ain't good :eek:

    Doesn't seem too expensive, and for a one-time fee could return some traffic, providing they promote it - but like all search engines this never happens and pigs might fly overhead regarding this one. Shame, but I don't think it's a Google killer or anything - no chance on that.

    It's not rubbish or anything, just isn't going anywhere :rolleyes:

    An WHOIS check on the domain it was registered back in 2002. It looks like the person renews the domain for 5 years each time. Not much to the actual site.
