Edgios Emerges

March 27, 2009

For fans who keep a search scorecard, you can now add Edgios. Cnet reported today that the stealth company is moving to the sun light. The story “Search Startup Edging Close to Prime Time?” is here. According to Cnet, Edgios wants to reinvent search. For me, the most interesting sentences in the write up were:

Edgios is bringing you the future of search. This doesn’t just involve a bigger index. And it’s not just a way for us to deliver you the same old results more cheaply. We’re re-inventing web search, opening up the entire process, fundamentally democratizing the discovery of information. Do any of the big search engines let you control what goes into the search index? Do they rank search results according to what real people want? No, they don’t. But Edgios does.

According to my goslings in Kentucky, Edgios is a distributed, peer to peer search engine. You can get a bit more detail here. Now on the watch list.
