Bye Bye, Blingo
April 2nd, 2008 : Carrie DowningAnyone else notice the makeover gone wrong over at Blingo?
For the un-initiated, Blingo is a search engine where you are eligible to win a prize for up to 25 searches a day. I have been using it for about the past four months, and not too long ago won a $5.00 Amazon gift certificate. The regular search results were — until very recently — powered by Google.
Well, Spring has sprung and change comes with it, but in this case not for the better. Blingo’s reconstructive surgery has left it one hot mess. Now with intermixed results from Yahoo, LiveSearch, and Ask, inquiries on Blingo return mostly useless results. Nice work, Publisher’s Clearing House.
Boo. Hiss.

Really? Ask Jeeves? What is this, 1997?
Back to good old fashioned http://www.google.com for me.

I think iRazoo is the best search and win site. They have good search results, and they allow you to earn points and exchange them for Amazon gift certificates.
