For the record, I only made this post in an attempt to get a link to the search engine somewhere in the article, in this case through the Sphere-powered related posts section. It didn't work :(<p>Story: <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/05/12/future.search.engine/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/05/12/future.search.engine/inde...</a> (YC's Scoopler is mentioned in the article.)<p>Snapshot: <a href="http://www.gabrielweinberg.com/blog/cnn.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.gabrielweinberg.com/blog/cnn.pdf</a><p>FWIW, here's the funding breakdown mentioned in the blog post...from crunchbase:<p>Wolfram Alpha: ?<p>Search Me: $43.6M<p>Kosmix: $55M<p>Hakia: $21M<p>Twitter: $55M<p>Duck Duck Go: bootstrapped :)

This is a really good search engine. I've been looking for one and I'm going to use this as the default in my browser for a while.<p>Very nice work. Very impressed. It's fast, the results are pretty good and the interface with the show more and hitting the down arrow to keep going is really nice.

Congrats Gabriel. DuckDuckGo trumps these guys, and I'm glad CNN got you guys into the article. Best of luck.

Suggestion, in case anyone from DDG is reading this. Switch the locations of the about link and the share link. I tried to click about, and in the process moused over the share link, which popped up some box that covered the about link.
