A search engine is judged by its utility, which is why having 10,000 geeks use it is a good sign.
A social network is not judged by the same sort of criteria, and so it's not at all clear to me why someone would apply the same strategy.
- nasmorn 14y agoI actually think of search as a heavily branded product. Like sugary drinks. Sure there are people that try somerhing new sometimes but that doesnt hurt the behemoths. I wonder if it is even possible to make a searchengine so much better than the "googles" that people referring to it as such could notice.
