China Search Daily

Yes, They came back as what they promised.

This early morning, I rechecked those 3 chinese Search Engines, Sina’s Iask, Sohu’s Sogou, Search of China.com. They all came back.

I did some queries at some products keyword and World Cup 2006. The result were perfect, lots of informations as usual. Even those urls for gambling information site were there and the link at the search engine was live.

Yes, business is business. They did what they said. And they back to the right business track for Search Engines.

Although search engines are always regarded as an reliable information center. I like the search to serve us at our daily life, business or study, entertainment or sports.

Just dont be Evil!

The “updating” is over, everyone back to the chinese playground of search engines. 

Today, I did a routine check at all the chinese search engines. 3 of them posted a notice at their homepage, and saying that there are upgrading.

Sina’s Iask, Sohu’s Sogou, and China.com’s search.

Iask notice:

Sogou notice:

China.com notice:

Its easy to explain the upgrading notice of China.com, because their search is powered by Sogou.

What happened to Iask and Sogou, or What happened to Sina and Sohu. They must be experiencing something.

A little bird told me that this “upgrading” would last for 3 days, from 19th to 21th. And the related resellers all got sorry letters before that from search engines. The letter said that due to some unexpected issue, they would stop the search for 3 days and would provide extra one week service as compensation.

Some rumor said that they might merge each other. I dont believed that. A very reliable little bird told me that, someone will be the Timev Second, and become the exclusive dealer for sou.china.com’s pay search. They had the contract in the hand.

So, the situation is that 3 chinese search engines will take 3 days off each, maybe from 19th to 21th, maybe longer.

Anyway, we still have google, baidu, yahoo, zhongsou and all the chinese search they power.
It’s enough!
