Suggesting you look into http://www.inversearch.com and the blog at http://inversearch.blogspot.com. We look forward to your podcast.
Thank you.
Drew,
Great podcast with several industry folks including myself. I’m beginning to wonder if this topic is a little of ahead of itself. Perhaps it may not be until 2010 when this topic picks up momentum. Most people seem content with Google for now. As other options become more well known that will change, or if Google improves their search results options.
In the meantime, you know that I’m following it closely.
Thanks for including me in this podcast.
