Default TO MUCH $$$$ X1 OWNS!

I sent this to Matt a while back and it all came down the dolla bill.

The X1 search engine is 100x BETTER!

we have it deployed throughout my enterprise and it OWNS Google!

wacki, good idea in principle, but it is one which would be a horrible business move. If they charged people to use this site, traffic would go way down, advertising fees would go way down, visibility goes way down. 2p2 should get this, but charging people, come on man.

What's so confusing? They could set up a more powerful search tool, and allow those of us to subscribe to it to do so. they could cover the cost of the software, and access to the site would not be restricted.

so you are saying there should be two search engines? No offense bro, but that is just retarded.

I think you would see people who don't pay getting the people that do to search for them. I don't like this idea. I support a fee for being able to post at all.

I don't understand why anyone would vote against. This is the biggest improvement 2+2 could make.

If there is a problem money wise, what about making the arcives, or archive search, available for a fee?

I voted yay, but what makes anyone think that 300 or 3000 people will pay to search archives?

I am very curious how many people use the search and how often? Just to browse past the first ten pages or to find relavant info?

The very best info on this site is in the archives.
