OR IS IT GOING THE WAY OF ALTA VISTA AND THE OTHER "HOT" SEARCH ENGINES OF THE PAST...
NOTE WELL... THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF SEARCH ENGINES... THE INTERNET IS FILLED WITH THEM...
BUT CERTAIN SEARCH ENGINES ACHIEVE A STATUS THAT MAKE THEM THE "HOT NEW THING."
THAT HONOR HAS GONE TO ALTA VISTA...REMEMBER THAT LITTLE CHESTNUT FROM THE PAST... THEN, YAHOO... AND NETSCAPE WHICH WAS BOTH SEARCH ENGINE AND PORTAL.
THEN CAME GOOGLE...ORIGINALLY A "CULT" SECRET SITE... BUT SOON EVERYONE WAS USING IT...
AND THE REST IS HISTORY...
WILL GOOGLE BE REPLACED...PROBABLY... BUT IT MAY BE TIME FOR SOME KIND OF SPECIALTY SEARCH ENGINE... A SEARCH ENGINE DESIGNED TO PERFORM ONE OR TWO TASKS BETTER THAN ANY OTHER... WE ALL KNOW THAT TONS OF STUFF ARE MISSED IN A GOOGLE SEARCH...
TYPE IN "APPLE" UNDER GOOGLE IMAGES AND THE FIRST TWO PAGES MAY BE OF A FRUIT...BUT BY THE THIRD PAGE YOUR LOOKING AT COMPUTERS AND SOMEONES DOG NAMED "APPLE!"
IS THERE ROOM FOR YAHOO... WELL I CERTAINLY HOPE SO...! I'VE BEEN A YAHOO USER EVER SINCE THEY ATE GEOCITIES...MANY YEARS AGO...
