The words "stupid" and "pointless" come to mind.

Yes, I am not sure myself if it has any usability value. I have used it
myself for only two days. If I still use it after some weeks, then
perhaps it is useful. At least for me. :-)

At least you're doing something on your own instead of slapping up
another Blogger blog. You get credits from me for that.

Still, I don't see how you're going to make money from the ad, and I
don't see why anyone would want to bookmark it and/or make it their
browser's start page. Usually, people stick to one engine. I myself
hardly ever use anything other than Google when searching for stuff. It
happens to be the best engine presently (even though it still sucks).

To make enough money on the ads for Google to even bother to pay me
requires a lot of visitors, which is very difficult to acheive in the
short run, if ever. However, I thought it was better to have ads from
the beginning instead of adding them later which could be annoying to
visitors.

What you say about people sticking to just one search engine is
probably true. I haven't done any research on that, but I too use
almost only Google for ordinary web searches. And for reference I
mostly go to Answers.com directly. What Mixlet can be useful for is
primarily audio and video searches, and maybe images.

Very useful for having a quick squizz what sites are top on diff
places. Whether I'll bookmark it I don't know though.

.... assuming that the visitor can do a search at all. You lack a
"submit" button for your form and rely entirely on JavaScript to
auto-submit. :S

It's a bit tricky to select which sites are the top sites, but I think
I have a fairly good ranking and mix of sites. Also, there are often
things happening among the search sites such as one company buying
another and so on. So the selection of sites will most likely have to
be updated slightly over time.

Yes, I wanted to make the access as direct as possible, except for the
standard way of hitting enter in the text field.

For the terms I look on its no more complicated than looking to see
where my sites are.
Not difficult at all.
