your website says nothing of interest about your supposedly non-proprietary technology, whatever it is.

your download is blind.

you ghost riding proxies or something?

as far as webferret goes... it isn't supposed to be any of those things. it's just fast.

This deskbar by Google looks contrived. No real advantage to using it over the integrated toolbar.

Copernic relies on a lot of proprietary protocols and techniques, which limits its usefulness. Plus, it has no markup language support, you cannot browse with it, and it relies on fixed templates to access search results. This limits the number of sites it can access.

WebFerret has a very limited interface. In fact, it is only one application for searching, which means if it does not work for you then you are stuck. It also has the same limitations of Copernic (no web browsing, no markup language support, and a reliance on proprietary technologies).

Of course, if you want a truly robust and powerful technology platofrm for browsing and searching the web, don't look at the Google's and Yahoo's of the world. Their good ideas ran out at least 3 years ago.
