Search Engine Vanity Overload

Charlene Li points to Ziggs, a new search engine thats helps users find business professionals and helps professionals massage their ego.

"The basic premise is that there are some professional - for example, lawyers, real estate agents, job candidates and yes, analysts - who want to be found on search engines like Google...They have in one index over 1 million profiles - spidered from thousands of corporate Web sites. Users can set up their own profiles (here's mine) or companies can submit profiles on behalf of their professionals. For now, this is free for individuals, but Ziggs plans to charge a $25 fee in the future."
