A9 Search Engine Launches Yellow Pages

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the picture-perfect dept.

vmalik writes "The A9 search engine has launched a Yellow Pages service, and the listings in major cities include photographs of the storefronts. The site also contains information on how they did it. It seems to be pretty good with lots of store images and driving information from MapQuest."

    A9 is like Google and Claria combined, with webbugs, click tracking and paid inserts all tied to your Amazon cookie which is tied to your credit card
    it only exists to maximise Amazon and their partners (those who pay the most) revenue

    at work we classify A9 as a "severe privacy threat" and therefore it is blocked at the firewall
