Vertical search is the new frontier and I think you're going to like the results you find with Become.com.

I met Yeogirl Yun at the first Web 2.0 conference, he was sitting next to me at the diner where I heckled Marc Cuban. Last October at the second Web 2.0 conference I sat next to Michael Yang at the opening night dinner and our conversation almost cost me a Media Center PC.
