Monopoly is always lead to death for healthy competition & hence in end consumer is victim & here if rumors is true than when no other Search Engine left for competition the ONE will provide result which is highly remuneration generating for HIM & not one which is really has useful things.

Need to watch on progress if SOMEONE heading towards MONOPLY…. BIG NO TO IT… Hope IT will work to come out from such practice if doing so…

Frankly, the SourceTool.com site, and tehir parent company’s site, look dodgy to me. Aggregating Google’s results hardly seems like a viable business model, and people who can’t even get a link to their own parent company’s Web site right surely have no business in business, so to speak.

Oh, HIM. Yeah, I’m always confused to see him as a talking head—I end up wondering whether he’s serious or making one big elaborate joke.

Dennis Miller,
Once an incredibly smart funny libertarian comedian, now a sad puppet for the neocons!

Nothing would surprise me in regards to Google..recent adwords tests on two identical themed sites, same age/amount of content and link love, revealed and instant drop in the organic rankings of both sites. We switched the campaign across to the identical themed site and the organic rankings on the first site sprang back to its #2 spot within hours. Do we want to sue..no thanks…but we’re getting more Google-wise by the minute

As one of many who was pretty much put out of business by the quality score system put in place by Google several months ago, I had a feeling that it was going to affect someone more heavily vested than myself.

One can argue that Google as a company has a right to set their prices as they see fit. But in many cases it seems extremely arbitrary.

At what point does a system become a part of the economy and have so many people relying upon it for their livelyhood that a small change in how it works can devastate thousands.

I know that when a product becomes a staple in a society it becomes a commodity and therefore not subject to owner pricing but subject to the market, but does this apply to a system created and set up by a company.

It could also be argued that just like you don’t see ESPN ads on FOX Sports, it was silly for this company to think that they would be able to sell a search engine using Google Search for very long before Google decided to stop it.

That’s just my opinion I could be wrong.
Miss you Dennis!

If they hate Google so much why are they still running AdSense on their site? http://www.sourcetool.com/results_solr.php?&mt=Cultured%20Pearls

I can see Google’s point of view – where’s the value added content?

I would have to see their paid search account. I have heard talk of things like this a lot for the past few months. But I refuse to bring personal judgement unless I know all the facts. I am curious to see how this plays out in court. If they were B-to-B, why not focus on Business.com ads? (chuckle) I know the answer to that, just had to say it.
