Sorry but these guys just don't get it. The secret to Google's success is Pigeon Power!

I'll certainly try it- google's appeal to me got tarnished by its less than friendly stance toward RKBA issues, and its filtering out extended returns on Free Republic.

I've used HotBot, mainly because it will search domain-specific areas, allowing you to look at a particular site for info.

Does PETA know about this "Pigeon Power" sweatshop yet. I bet Kathy Lee has her hand in it somewhere.

Google is one hot search engine. It had to be, to knock off AltaVista. If Teoma can improve on it materially, I'll be more than surprised. But I'll also be delighted.

We are approaching a time in which anyone can find any bit of knowledge to which he has even the most meager pointer. And all of it has been fueled by individual initiative and the free market.

"We are the next generation in search,"

Go for it Apostolos. Talk is cheap. Roll the sucker out and let the people decide. You've got a long way to go to beat Google.

I like- I'm getting terrific results on Teoma.

It's also much better than google for searching Free Republic.
BTW: a trick for doing a site-specific search of Free Republic is to use freerepublic, as one word, for a search term.

I hope I can drop the gunsales ad-banning, abortion promoting Google!
