HH,
Does that mean you don't own any of the large cap search engine stocks or are you merely referring to the small cap search engines?
My other search engine investment besides SLEU, which I remain very bullish on, is ExperTelligence (EXGP). This is also a micro-cap, commercialized search engine portal which has a marketing and advertising arrangement with Saatchi & Saatchi. There are "rumors" of other alliances in the wind but that is all they are right now ... rumors. EXGP recently came out with a comparison shopping search engine (I prefer SLEU's more) and a comparison online auction search which is unique AFAIK. You can search this at webdata.com
EXGP also has something in beta called "Enchilada" at webdatabeta.webdata.com which seems to be a "stealth" search engine for very direct searches.
Best of all, EXGP has a market cap of a mere $22 million which is even less than SLEU. It has audited financials that it files with the SEC. It is expected that financing will be announced which should qualify EXGP for a NASDAQ listing but that is only my expectation. EXGP has a 1.5 million shares outstanding with a float of an astounding 900 thousand shares. A Wall Street principal has purchased over 130,000 shares of EXGP in the open market which you can view at sec.gov
There you have it. My two search engine preferences are two commercialized micro-caps, SLEU and EXGP, which IMO have the capability of surpassing WKWG's peak valuation of $150 million and maybe even WCTI's peak valuation of $500 million!
Who knows, maybe someday SLEU and EXGP will be the next YHOO, XCIT, LCOS, SEEK, etc.?
