Tech Tips Legend Chris Pirillo Launches Gada.Be Search Engine
.
Instead of plugging in a URL for a search engine, then visiting each page in search results, visitors can merely type in their search term as a subdomain with "gada.be" at the end.  Gada.Be was developed by Chris Pirillo, founder of Lockergnome and former TechTV host.
Developer Shayne Sweeney is the technical brains behind Gada.be.

gada.be is for anybody with access to the Web and in need of immediate, impartial results. Gada.be was borne out of several frustrations. If you've ever tried to visit a Web site over a mobile device, you understand. The domain had to be simple to key-in from anywhere. gada.be is 4232.2233 on most cell phones and PSPs. Normally, when you want to find something online, you have to choose a Web site (wait for the page to load) enter the query (wait for the second page to load) then see results from that provider. With "gada.be," you insert the query *AS* the subdomain! 

How to use gada.be
Try the search box on the main page (or at the top of any gada.be page). Notice how your keywords are separated by a dash when you look at your address bar? We do this for a reason: your keywords are infused with the site's results! You might be visiting Seattle, in need of good sushi. So, enter http://seattle-sushi.gada.be/ in your address bar or enter "seattle sushi" into the search box. 

You can use dashes or dots to separate your words. Dashes imply that you're searching for both of the words (together or apart), whereas a dot implies that you're searching for a term. This way, you can carry the URL with you wherever you go (or link to it) and the results will remain intact. You can even combine them, dashes and dots, in the URL. http://technology-cool.stuff.gada.be/ would yeild results akin to: technology AND "cool stuff" (go ahead, give it a shot).

The URLwire Effect:
"URLwire is without question the most effective way to tell the right people in the online world about your web site" 
-- CoolShopping.com

My experience with URLWire has been entirely positive.
I received coverage (and links!) from key sites and in e-newsletters, one of which had over 500,000 readers. Resulting traffic has been more than impressive. URLwire
demonstrated to me that it's the prime choice for announcing a web site. Edwin Hayward
