google pointers to verticalisation ....

Serious "investors" should read on. Traders can please themselves. Google have no doubt given their vote of approval for the Verticalisation of the Net, within this "strong" article here. I have added the "drilled down" Looksmart results to examplify, what I feel will be a Google - Looksmart solution.

Bill Slawski brought this up during his presentation on Algorithms at Search Engine Strategies. Bill connected the whitepaper, "InterestMap: Harvesting Social Network Profiles for Recommendations", to the latest Google & MySpace partnership.



Bill’s example of how this information gathered from Social Networks can be used is if a user:

* Lists their favorite musicians in their MySpace account as John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and Bessie Smith

* They search on Google for “blues”

Results 1 - 10 of about 211,000,000 for blues -
http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=blues&btnG=Google+Search&meta=

* Google can now serve personalized search results with all blues music oriented serps.

Drilled down - Looksmart - Results 1 - 10 of about 165,000 for Looksmart Blues http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&q=Looksmart+Blues+&btnG=Search&meta=

* If another user is a member of the Brett Hull Fan Club and lists Hockey as a hobby on their profile while living in St. Louis; Google can serve personalized results focused on The Blues Hockey Team.

Google - Results 1 - 10 of about 4,990,000 for Blues Hockey Team

Drilled down - Results 1 - 10 of about 10,500 for Looksmart Blues Hockey Team.

If you have got this far, you must have an interest in the future of Looksmart and may very well "take the tip" as to why LOK really are "serious" value, with a market cap of just $59.76M @ the overnight close in the US, of $2.62cps. With the above we may very well be, one step ahead of Bill Slawski in how it can all be achived. I'm taking my chances.
