Something is going on at the French general-purpose search engine Exalead. And, no, we’re not talking about the new features and functionality of their image search, which they announced on their company blog today. Instead, we’re talking about something much more visible; namely, what you see on the Exalead homepage (www.exalead.com). Previously, the homepage looked like your typical [...]

Although it never reached the search engine “major leagues”, Accoona was a serious minor-league player for several years. The service was launched almost four years ago at a major PR event attended by former president Bill Clinton, who reportedly carried out the first public search on the service. [...]

I’ll write more about all the changes in separate postings over the next week or two, but I thought I’d give everyone a “heads up” now. First, we’ve finally added video search to Zuula.

Zuula image search now provides access to image search results from Pixsy. Image search is a popular feature at Zuula, in part because search engines often return rather different image search results [...]

If you haven’t checked out Zuula’s blog search capabilities recently, I suggest you do. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the many different blog search engines Zuula now offers. Until recently, the blog search options at Zuula were limited to Google blog search, Technorati, IceRocket blog search, and Topix blog search. To these original four [...]

Since it’s St. Patrick’s Day — and Zuula has a special St. Patrick’s Day logo to celebrate the occasion — we thought it would be a good idea to finally create a little archive of all the holiday logos we’ve developed and displayed in the past.  You can find the archive here.
