Telsaurus.com is a Custom Google Search Engine for the .tel namespace. It took me 30 seconds to build and launch yesterday and has already serviced thousands of queries.<p>In the future it will grow to become a fully fledged search engine in its own right, but for now it beats having a boring "coming soon" page :)
I somewhat disagree with mronge (which reads as ummmm-wrong), i don't care how long it took you to build it.
However, what is it for? What is the .tel space? Why does the .tel space need a search engine?<p>I could build a search engine that only returned results with .net or .biz, but what purpose would that serve.
So unless you have a market, you don't have a start-up.
Congrats! Sounds like you successfully built a minimum viable product and you're getting a response from the market.<p>How did you let people know about your site? To me, the most interesting aspect of this post is that you had thousands of pageviews within 24 hours of launch.
