Thinkers’ Park

What a brilliant idea! I was so impatient to write this review that I am publishing this post without even researching deeper in to the way Kosmix.com works. Go, search there about anything, and it generates a page for you. Yes, a page with contents extracted from over the internet, which is not only the rich in quality, but also exhaustive and categorized in to most of what we could be searching for. And now the killer specialty about kosmix.com is that the pages that Kosmix generates for user search is index-able by Google! Don’t believe? Check this: google search

Can you imagine that? The consequences of google indexing its own killer competitor?  Google ranks those pages high in its search results which are information rich. Kosmix.com compiles is an auto generated content, but quite relevant, and quite informative. That means, its likely that Google will rank the kosmix.com generated pages high in its search engine.  And once a user reaches kosmix.com, probably he won’t return back to google again.

In other words, Google, if it doesn’t block Kosmix.com from its index, will be giving free advertisement and promotion to its own rival. Imagine a politician voting for his own oponent, and leading his followers too to vote for his opponent, but the opponent welcomes and keeps all those who come from wherever they be! That’s how Google and Kosmix are going to relate to each other.

Well done  Anand Rajaraman and Venky Harinarayan!!(Founders of Kosmix.com) Its a killer idea. And I am sure, its going to rock!  Yeah, I am unfairly proud about this, probably because the masterminds behind this grand idea are Indians. See, its fair to be a bit unfair for the sake of patriotism

Google, if you want to survive, go ahead and buy the smart guys behind Kosmix.com, or outsmart them by even a better innovation. Or if none is possible, get a bit unfair, and block the Kosmix.com pages from appearing in your search results. Good luck, both to Google as well as Kosmix.com.
