Another Semantic Search Engine Enters Fray by Megan Burger, PCWorld (Aug 2)
Short positive review of the new Yebol - "knowledge based (semantic) search"
"At launch, Yebol can provide categorised results for more than 10 million search terms. According to the company it intends to provide results for 'every conceivable search term' in the next three to six months."
If your search is on one of these topics, the results page can provide related topics, categories, news, web results - a reasonably good profile - somewhat in the style of Kosmix (which I still prefer).
But if your keywords don't match the results are slim - some expanded searches, and top sites.
Ads by Google are also treated topically - get short topical phrases that link to ads related to that topic.
Compare land conservancy at Yebol to Kosmix.
