FAST is a norvegian company that specialize in fast algorithms for search and also transfer of video and images. Since FAST is a research company they are interested in selling their technology, not productifying it themselves. All the web is a marketing site for FAST technology and is probably going to be closed down after an eventual sale (according to norvegian newspapers).
The company has a couple of strange fellows working for them, there is former archeologist, medical doctors and statisticans. Guess a combination of their speciality fields spurred a really strange, but fast, algorithm.
