All of Bill's paid Ph.ds at
Microsoft 'Research' couldn't
invent a search engine as great
as teoma. HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA. What
a joke -- now he decides to
by Google -- a BOOLEAN search
engine -- Boolean search, the
most brain dead strategy in all
of Computer Science. What's next?
Wood-burning computers?

They want $30 to submit a site, and it's part of the Ask Jeeves
waste-of-time.

for a minute I thought it might be worthwhile.. just these two facts have
severely put me off.

Well, to be honest, I've never thought
much of Ask Jeeves - BUT - the last
time I used it was like, pre-Internet bust.

I noticed that they were still alive
a few months ago AND that their stock
was being picked by several analysts so
that caught my eye.

However, with Teoma -- you should really
try it -- I tried it last night and
have made it my primary search page (although
I'm still trying to figure out how to
add it to the search page options on
the right hand drop down of Firebird (!) )

Anyway, it seems to use CBR of some type,
( case based reasoning ) or pattern matching
after the initial Boolean search. If you
click on the About link at the bottom you
may find the article about their technology
quite interesting.

Also, the page graphics are very hip.

As to the $30 per site -- mmm...well not much
is it?

But ok, the one thing that would bother
me is:

Google runs on RedHat clusters - which is
why they were my favorite search company.

I don't know what OS/platform Teoma runs on.
I hope its Linux or Unix - and I'm going to
try and find out...
 
Ok -- I'm sold on Teoma.

I have been trying for two weeks to
figure out how to boost the sound
level of my card ( legacy 8-bit
SB Pro chipset, eSound driver ) which
is clear on Ogg, but much lower than when
playing a CD rom. I searched for hours
on Goggle and found nothing.

I just did a quick search on teoma
and found it on the 2nd hit!

( run aumix )

I still need to find out what platform
Teoma runs on.

And NetCraft says:
