Oparla: Pay You to Use Its Search System
April 9, 2009
A happy quack to the reader who alerted me to Oparla. This is a pay you to use it search system. I ran some of my standard queries and found the results useful. The results page is simple, and “beyond search” appears at the top of the results list. I liked this, of course. I don’t know much about the system, and I could not spot a way to sign up and start getting paid. You can read a brief review of the system here. There is some basic information about the service here.
The founder is a British entrepreneur Daniel Jupp. The Web site quoted Mr. Jupp as saying:
Users will also be able to message each other to advise and help each other with searches, something previously used by chat rooms, forums and blogs, but avoided by the search engine creators.
I don’t fully understand the variable payment model, but that does not mean it will not work. The search system launches later this year. I have added it to my watch list.
