About Accoona
Accoona provides a great interactive search experience to its users. The user is more involved in determining his/her search results by being able to highlight and emphasize selected keywords.
This revolutionary Interactive Search Technology, combined with proprietary Artificial Intelligence Software that understands the meaning of words, delivers SuperTargetedTM Search results that significantly differentiate Accoona in the Search Industry.
Accoona Artificial Intelligence now takes the Search Experience to the next level by merging information from both the Web and the Accoona Business Database in real time. For the first time on an Internet Search Platform, Accoona presents business website content and its relevant business data in a complementary format.
about AI
Accoona Artificial Intelligence is a Search Technology that understands the meaning of search queries beyond the conventional method of matching keywords. This user-friendly technology, merging online and offline information, delivers more relevant results and enhances the user experience.Accoona's Artificial Intelligence allows the user to enhance their search in three major ways:
First of all, Accoona's Artificial Intelligence uses the meaning of words to get you better searches. For example, when you type five keywords in a traditional search engine, you're going to get every page that has all five keywords, no more, no less. With Accoona's Artificial Intelligence Software, which understands the meaning of the query, the user will get many additional results.
Accoona's Artificial Intelligence also SuperTargetsTM your search. For example, within a query of five keywords, Accoona Artificial Intelligence allows the user to highlight one keyword, and will rank the search results starting by every page where the meaning of that one keyword is more important than the meaning of the other four keywords.
Also, Accoona's Artificial Intelligence merges information from the Web and the Accoona Business Information Database in real time. For example, when you go online and try to buy a new computer, instantly you will get a listing of all URLs of computer dealers. In real time, Accoona's Artificial Intelligence technology merges with the URLs, all relevant information about this company, from phone number, fax number, address, and name of the contact to business description.

hmm
I have done some testing. I typed in www.compsci.ca at google.ca and nothing came up and then i typed in www.compsci.ca at acoona.com and 2 results for this site came up.
I also typed in other things and got different results like alienware computers got different results but i like GOOGLE and besides GOOGLE would probly come out with something like that in the months to come. [/b] |

If you want to search pages from a specific domain (eg. www.compsci.ca) on google you have to put
site:www.google.ca
It gives about 2820 results. |

| Well, if it's new then I would only expect it to have low results. It's not like their bots have been crawling the web as much as Google's have gotten a chance too. But once they catch up we'll really be able to see a good comparison of the two. |

I think google's biggest threat over the next five years will be:
1. Themselves.
If Google goes stagnant, they're in for some trouble.
2. http://www.a9.com/
Google is an advertising service. Amazon sells stuff too. Seems like a deadly combination (a prelude to GoogleZon?). A9 is a pretty slick search engine (built with google tech). |

A9 uses google's search technology.
I like it because I can search everything that I want...be it books, text, wikipedia, images ... all at the same time. |

Go to Google and type,
filetype:torrent anime |

That was his point. He said it uses Google technology, so he likes it.
And accoona's not Gogle's new nemesis. Google has, imo way too much new innovative stuff in dev; their search engine is far from the only thing they have going for them right now. |
