- MikeTheGreat 6y agoSorry for the off-topic post: Is there a good way to get non-paywalled access to this? It says I can read it if I register but today that's just one step too many for me ("_Another_ account? Really? sigh" :) ) I'm kinda curious to know why anyone is trying to start a new search engine(s), given both Google and Bing. (But apparently not curious enough to give my email address to Yet Another Website :) )
- piokoch 6y agoCopy title, paste into search engine box and access from the search engine list. It seems FT wants to get the traffic and the indexing more than money from subscription.
- MikeTheGreat 6y agoHuh. That worked really well. I feel like a goofball for not trying that myself, but appreciate the advice/tip. Thanks!
- heavyset_go 6y agoHow many of these startups plan to actually compete instead of planning to be bought up by Google or Microsoft?
