http://money.cnn.com/2008/07/28/tech...ex.htm?cnn=yes


This search engine says that it is better than google. YAH RIGH! The page is soooooooooo slow and I seriously doubt that it displays the correct content.

i think the guy who made it did a fast job of it! to sell off later on to get money out of it, thats my feel about it.

not top of the line and don't think he'll can't go anywhere with it.

They said 20 million was invested in it. I doubt it took near that much to design it.

Yeah, not too impressed with the layout of the page.

I also get little layout screwups in IE. :/
