And the fight goes on

It's hard to believe that with so much war between the major SEs (Search Engines), Google, Yahoo, and MSN, one company would try to enter the Search Engine Market expecting to make an impact. But such is the mission of Snap.

Snap was started by Bill Gross, the same man who started Overture and sold it to Yahoo for $1.63 billion, seems set to continue a long line of profitable start-ups with this one. Snap has quickly become one of the top five alternative to the three major search engines. Though Google, Yahoo, and MSN combined hold over 90 percent of the search engine market, with Google dominationg over 60% of the users, Snap has shown its colors and that it may have a prayer in the Search Engine Market.

The bottom line is that while the big three are fighting for control, this small startup has shown that with some talent success can be achieve. Snap is not out to organize the world's information, they are not out to be the most use search engine, but simply to provide another way to search the Web. Right now the site provides a clean, easy to use interface and seems that it has not been gamed, I'm sure for SEOs will find a way to break it soon enough.
