    merges information from the web with its own business database in real time.
    I was stunned at the depth of information it presented to me by just typing the company name. Try it to believe it!

    well its me and am no spammer. its my first time at forums and message boards so i may not be using the most seasoned language which must be used here...............but i assure you, i am a quick learner.

    I definitely have no intention of marketing this search engine. Being an avid net enthusiast, i am keenly interested in search engines coz i hunt for virtually everything i need on the net. I feel someday, somehow, a search engine will show me the way..............and life for me will change completely.

    We just came across some discussions regarding possible forum spamming by Accoona or those promoting it. The discussions struck us as being rather relevant, so we are posting a few links here.

    In some comments, a website owner mentioned a promotional message for Accoona in their forums by a poster with a particular IP address. Turns out it is the same IP address as the original poster here.
