I understand the value of protecting your data, but on search engines it is only used to aim ads at you - which can be blocked. Honestly, the only thing that would drive me to use this engine is the look of it. Very slick! Good luck in your rollout, I will keep an ear out for any more news.

I profiled you on my blog in February 09 (http://hidemysearch.blogspot.com/), but when i go to your site, you still show as Beta. Also the search results are not really up to scratch yet. What are your plans for the engine? Hi Sam,

Are you ready yet for prime time? I profiled you on my blog in February 09 (http://hidemysearch.blogspot.com/), but when i go to your site, you still show as Beta. Also the search results are not really up to scratch yet.
What are your plans for the engine?
