I think I have mentioned the Kartoo metasearch site before (posibly in another place ). It's worth mentioning again though, as it has been updated to version 2

Kartoo provides a different slant on searching for a web site. Because it is written in Flash, it is graphically rich and slightly quirky but manages to be pretty accurate.

Like a normal search engine, you type in keywords for the thing you are looking for. But when you press enter, Kartoo goes off and searches a selection of other search engines for your keywords and presents the results in a graphical form.

You have to use it to see what I mean

It didn't find us either, so it must be crap!  

Oh yes, so it does!    I can see for myself that it's a load of rubbish now.    It doesn't even show pc-pals!  Google finds it every time for me when I want to log in.

There is something definitely very fishy about Kartoo!  One of the results it threw up was for a very obscure band forum I was talking on recently.  I wouldn't be at all surprised if the ActiveX applet was not only allowing Flash, but looking through your browser cache, too!

I hope I'm wrong.  

The zoom feature is useless because .. well because it is.  The Bible says "Thou shalt not worship graven images.  There is only one search engine, the Lord thy Google".  Kartoo is a graven image and therefore is an abomination in the face of Google.

The zoom feature is useless because .. well because it is.

I think you must be too used to your plasma TV. If the image doen't look ten feet wide its too small

I'm really going to have to pay another visit to knock you into shape Clive. We can't have you finding religion at this late stage in your life, whatever next - Communism?

Rodders - do you think Kartoo may have matched on the email address you used on that post - rodders@pc-pals.com?
