Yamoogle tops 8,000 searches

Well, it's been a long time coming but paul asplin was the 8,000th user of Yamoogle. We have left it to grow an internet presence over the last six months or so and have learnt a lot, namely that;

When people use Yamoogle for the first time, they then tend to become lifelong Yamooglers

Paul Asplin was the 8,000th Yamoogler

We need to make a couple of wording alterations on the site in order to satisfy Google guidelines

There's a big need for a Yamoogle directory - with hand picked, eco frindly websites

Progress report

I'll keep this short ... Yamoogle still pottering along being a successful beta version and gearing up for the big proper launch! Thanks again to everyone who's using it as their default search engine, without you guys and girls, the concept would never have worked, lets hope that when we make the official launch in a few weeks time it will do you all proud! Now lets all have a group hug to celebrate ... come on now, don't be shy! Hello? ...

We're back!

Good news Yamooglers! We're back to a fully functioning search engine! So go, start saving the planet!!!

We're innocent!!

Our search stopped working today as we think Google have blocked the search from working due to "invalid clicks" basically, Google thinks that people are clicking on the sponsored results of the searches invalidly in order to raise mor money for Yamoogles carbon offsetting although we don't know this for sure as they've not contacted us.

We beleive that this is entirely unfair and are petitioning Google to try and get them to reverse the decision which ultimately will result in thousands, maybe even millions being lost from our environmental cause.

Google have not responded to any of our correspondance with them and we're pretty upset about it down at Yamoogle as you can imagine!

You can help by joining the facebook campaign or however you can to get google to allow us to function again

We'll try to keep you updated ...

Status update

Well, three weeks old and Yamoogle is fast approaching 4,000 searches and has raised the funds needed to offset over 20 tonnes of carbon! These early figures show us that we're doing better than expected and should acheive higher than 18.1 tonnes per average user per year.

Thanks to you all for using the beta version and putting up with any bugs or slow loading pages, you have given us the realtime data we need to go out and wow some corporates into giving us some free PR or cash for advertising!

You've also managed to offset over 20 tonnes of carbon between you which should bring a smug smile to your faces as you watch your contemporaries using other search engines, getting exactly the same results and sending all that revenue to Google (As if they need it!)

A small request from the Yamoogle team now, please please tell as many people as you can to use yamoogle and download its toolbar. We've already proven that it works and it won't be long before we launch the full version but we need yamooglers like YOU! To go out and about pestering everyone you know to start using us. You can also blog about it as this guy has done or post it on your company website if you have the authority to do so. In fact, the Yamoogler who comes up with the most inventive method of getting people to Yamoogle will get their story and picture posted on the Yamoogle homepage when we launch the full version.

Get Yamoogling!!!
