Ask

The new Ask was unveiled today at Search Engine Strategies in New York City. Jeeves has gone the way of Lavern and Shirley as Barry Diller is attempting to make his mark on the information super highway.

Ask has about two percent of the search market, but Barry has pleanty of cash from his TV and cable shopping ventures and he believes people need more chose. Ask is also the home of Bloglines now and they have their own blog. Ask is not as good to me as Google, MSN and Yahoo is, so what can you do about that Barry? 

I had a nice meeting early this morning with the folks behind GenieKnows, they are in the vertical search spaces of Health, Business and Gaming. Give them a spin see what you can come up with.
