Finally, those religious stories my mother read me have some use. I read in Tech Crunch that Yahoo! launched their blog search tonight to join fellow Goliath partner Google in taking on all us little blog search start ups. Initial impression: it’s a hard UI to work through and the results aren’t comprehensive – as an example, do a search on surfing competition which only delivers 5 results, of which 4 have nothing to do with surfing, nor surfing competition. We’re launching our beta site next week, you can sign up for a beta account @ Sphere.
By the way, do we get two sling shots? Oops, my co-founder Steve reminded me that they didn’t have any elastic materials back then so it was just a sling. Anyway, can we get two of those?
May I offer you two slings.
Sling #1
With the Beta – release a toolbar for Mozilla. These guys are early adopters, and tool bar or incorporation into existing ones only make it easier to use and thus become popular.
Sling #2
With the Beta, create a the easy to use code for people on blogger.com etc – to put a sphere search box on their blogs.
Enjoy the slings?
EXCELLENT!!!
More slings please. Thanks Doctor.
