It's not tiring for people who want to analyze where other companies are doing well or poorly. An independent willing to take on the execution challenges of a generalized search engine is truly rare anymore. What others good examples are there to watch besides DDG?
- kyro 16y agoOne-liners claiming that DDG is the clear alternative and solution are hardly analysis.
- wgj 16y agoI have a lot of respect for Gabriel. If I'm able to say that in one line, then so be it. Edit: lmkg's comment didn't say everyone should use DDG for all search needs. It pointed out the value of independent alternatives. One liner or not, it's valid and relevant. DDG is valuable to the discussion because it specifically attempts to innovate rather than copycat the status quo.
- nostrademons 16y agoI have a lot of respect for Gabriel too, but that's different from saying that DDG is the answer to all your search needs.
- lmkg 16y agoWgj is correct, and I meant the DDG comment to be tongue-in-cheek. I think that became less clear because I segued into a serious point, sorry for the confusion. My point was only that a third search engine means that Google homogenizing the search industry isn't a good strategy anymore. DDG does that merely be existing, outside of anything else it does to differentiate itself (or rather, it would if it had more market share).
