- yannis 17y agoVery interesting idea.
- matt1 17y agoI just read through everything on your site with the exception of the wiki -- pretty amazing stuff you guys are doing. There are so many possibilities... just wow. Nice work.
- jpeterson 17y agoWhy are comments like this sometimes voted to the top, and other times buried with downvotes? Where's the line between good self-promotion and spam? Seriously asking.
- icey 17y agoI'd guess a lot of it has to do with the (perceived) quality of the linked site.
- matt1 17y agoTo their credit, 80legs does make crawling the web much easier than starting from scratch so it does answer the question of how to begin.

- jdrock 17y agoFor what it's worth, we actually are helping new search engines scale their capabilities. ..and not just on crawling (or indexing, as most people confuse it), but also on applying their search technology. There are a ton of really cool search technologies (NLP, deep web, media analysis, etc.) out there that don't have the processing power to apply their stuff to billions of web pages. That's a big stumbling block for these guys. Google's #1 competitive advantage (IMHO) is its low operating cost (achieved through hundreds of millions of dollars in CapEx).
