VentureBeat: ManagedQ wants to be ‘Windows for search’

    Antony, why do you cover them? They are all losers because none can beat Google in medium-term by building a search destination site. You know that that, don't you? You have shift paradigm of people "think search. they think g....".

    @ Yakov: I agree that beating Google seems unlikely, but I still think ManagedQ is interesting and worth writing about. Just because we cover a company doesn't mean we guarantee they'll succeed!

    But the broader question you touch on (destination site building on Google vs. totally new search paradigm) is interesting. Instinctively, I have more faith in someone who says, "Well, we're not going to beat Google at search per se, so how else can we get in the game?" It seems more realistic than, say, shifting paradigm as required by your company Quintura. But maybe I'm not seeing the bigger picture?

    Yakov:

    if you call your competitor a "loser", it helps to add a disclaimer stating you own a search site that also sits atop Google (and Yandex). Seriously, this is appalling. You should learn to be less jealous to other's success. I for one would love to know what other companies out there do Google Android as their primary business, but so far, fail to find any! Looks like my only competitors are individual developers, and a bit of Motorola...
