When I heard of TheFind a few months ago (by reading TechCrunch), I was really impatient to discover this new service: it’s always good to see innovative challengers to established players. So I was really happy to see the beta was launched a few days ago. I suppose my expectations were a bit too high, because I’m a bit disappointed.

We launched our technology for the event tickets category in June 2005 as www.fatlens.com. This was the first example of anyone doing a live search site for event tickets. About a year later we are launching our technology to power search for shopping across all of the e-commerce catgeories as www.TheFind.com. While many consumer start-ups can be launched much much quicker than this, building a search engine is not that easy. Applying search technology to e-commerce is also a different problem than crawling and indexing web content. The scale of this problem is very different from the other vertical search areas like real estate, jobs and classifieds. When we roll out our new site, TheFind.com - you will see a much richer shopping search experience than anything that's out there today. Think of what you'd like to see when searching for something new - you want to see results that cover as much online ground as possible, and that show you supporting information that helps you find what you need. We welcome your feedback now, and will welcome it when we launch so you can see what we've been working on that's needed this level of technology.

So why don't you pitch the VC's on Sand Hill? Get a life - or an idea of your own! hey MOose,

Interesting idea, but dont really know if there is much of a market/model for this. Three years seems a long time already to get something like this live.
