Another new searchengine - or is it ?

Last Monday I blogged about Ask.com having a facial, and Sputtr entering the contest. We now introduce, in the red corner, searchboth.com. Red because this thing is going to start bleeding from day one. Searchboth, and the other new contender Sputtr, are not in fact new search engines, but a feeble attempt at enticing searchers to a mediocre offering.

Google and Yahoo search results

Toll Free Yellow Pages today announced the launch of SearchBoth.com.au, the nation's first Web site that enables users to search both Google.com and Yahoo.com at the same time [excuse me - see below].

Both Google and Yahoo are placed side by side on a split screen in order for users to easily compare results of both Web sites.

The company has also launched the same service for the UK with SearchBoth.co.uk,
the U.S. with Searchboth.com, and Canada with SearchBoth.com.ca, which has been down for the past 2 days.

GahooYoogle.com

The option of running both search engines alongside one another has been available for some time. I am sure the legal department of searchboth.com .au will claim that because GahooYoogle.com does not have an Australian based website [.com.au] it is "the nation's first Web site that enables users to search both Google.com and Yahoo.com at the same time". They may be correct, but the product they are promoting is not the equal of their legal language manipulation.
