Unless you were asking them for $1 billion this is pretty dumb.
I wouldn't say it's necessarily dumb. You fail if you're pitching a search engine and you don't have a compelling answer to "Why wouldn't people just use Google?"
- itswindy 16y agoA search engine needs $100+ million to $xx billions to create and a very different angle to market since Google is bookmarked and people go there to search for stuff. You see Blekko trying to get some press by saying that they deleted 1 million domains from Serps? As if that makes sense But yeah, if he wanted to create a web search engine, then he was asked the right question.
