Maybe an alternative for those of us dissatisfied with Google's gun ad policies.

Hmmm. Interesting. Just checked it out. One of my sites is already listed (#1 return for relevance!) and I didn't even have to submit. That already gets a thumbs up from me. It took me ages to get listed with Google and I only get number two there.

Did you see the April Fool link on Google's homepage about their PigeonRank(tm) technology. It looks like they were aping Teoma <g>

Maybe a trained user could use Teoma to drill down better to an "expert" site. To me (looking for some common items) the top level results look rather scattershot. Why can't their "more results like this" give you results that include the original link? (Something like "this and more similar results.") I hate to flip back and forth between pages of a search and this is totally unnecessary.

I've used Teoma for quite some time. Sadly Google is still the best.

I don't like their anti-gun policy but they are the best at what they do.

Plus if I remember correctly there were people involved with Teoma who I didn't like for some reason or other.

Every once in a while I check back in to see how they are coming, but compared to all the hoopla when they launched last year they haven't delivered.

If I boycotted all the services and products from providers and manufacturerers on my poop list, I'd be walking around naked, starving and in need of a hot bath.

Kinda the way I am now except for the naked part.
