    Accoona takes on Google

    Accoona said it has over $100 million in financial backing from private investment funds.

    In addition, Accoona has an agreement with the China Daily Information Company to become the preferred search engine portal across China for the next 20 years on an exclusive basis.

    Former president Bill Clinton on Monday helped launch a new Internet search company backed by the Chinese government which says its technology uses artificial intelligence to produce better results than Google Inc.

          What is Clinton up to lately? Accepting 800k from Arabs to promote their image, saying that free speech should be curtailed in the US and now promoting a company which the Chinese will use to block access to information. Has he gone nutty like Jimmy Carter?

                      AI ... wtf do they think google uses?

                      Googlebot is a prime example of an AI agent, their indexing algorithms also use probabilities etc.

                      Just a lot of buzzwords to create hype is all it is. I'll believe the relevancy when I see it.

                              That's what I thought too, but it looks like they're just using overture as a tracking service. Most of the clicks don't seem like paid links, hell most of the results I see are actually Wikipedia links. Seems a little primative in its results but I really do hope they gain some momentum.

                                      I've used it a bit today.. I kind of like the results. Not bad overall.
                                      Do some searches, and compare the results with Google. Seems a lot less spammy, and more authoritative and interesting. I didn't search for porn yet.
