New Internet Search Service Provider

[YMT]

TaoOfSearch, Inc. is very excited to announce its first phase beta release. You are cordially invited to visit www.taoofsearch.com, a new Internet search service provider.

TaoOfSearch is building a whole new Internet search structure to address five core issues related to the Internet search - Coverage, Relevancy, Freshness, Efficiency, and Self-improvement.

The first phase has following major features:
1. Web unit self-submission.
2. Structured content indexes and categorized search results.
3. Interactive searching process (only open to registered users who submitted web contents).

You are welcome to test and use our service.

Asking for a bit much before I can provide any feedback on the search experience.

So far, I'd call it far too complicated...perhaps if you let people have the search box & seed the data set with crawled content (start with dmoz.org, followl links, etc...) then it might seem more like a search engine.

As it is...i'm not entirely sure I'm not going to be spammed after sending in all that personal data & agreeing to such a long terms of service before even being given the opportunity to register.

In any event, good luck.

Welcome to the Beta Test section, YMT. Feel at home.

I agree with Jeremy. Asking for honest feedback but then presenting users with login information requirements or in this case with terms of service/use agreements are unnecessary roadblocks in the eyes of many reviewers. You may want to rethink these prerequisites in order to get some response/feedback.

Good luck.

Hi, Jeremy and Orion, Thanks!

We will change our home page soon to avoid the confusion. Register is only need for web site owners/Webmasters to submit data. Long account agreement is necessary to provide guidance for data submission.

For people here to provide honest feedback, I have registered a testing account with user name tostest and password testtos. Please feel free to use it to go through the submission process at "Web Unit Submission" and give your comments and suggestions.

I will post another note when the new home page is ready. Then you can do some search and check features there.
