(FYI – I just happen to be one of the beta testers …) so my guess is you don’t really work for them – you just like to talk Sh*it right?</p><p>On a side note – it is not uncommon for two Israeli companies to take a particular industry by storm. As an entrepreneur who has multiple exits under his belt I would suggest taking a more positive approach – at the end of the day our industry is a small boat – rocking it doesn’t help anyone.</p><p>The bottom line – both companies have great ideas – both companies have good teams, both need to work hard and focus on execution – and not in the “killing each other” sense. Time will tell who is better and actually delivers results that the end user finds more beneficial than Google - which at the end of the day, is what it is all about, no? When either of them show me a product that actually delivers on the promise I would be happy to put my cash on the table…</p>Little bit of loveFri, 11 Jul 2008 14:19:50 -0000http://mashable.com/2008/07/10/sightix/#comment-6010483<p>Search is clearly as important to social networks as it is to any other publisher – I don’t think that CNN or any other major media player has a problem with outsourcing Search to Google. In fact MySpace has outsourced to Google as well come to think of it...</p><p>Get a life, learn the industry or keep your thought to yourself…</p><p>Disclaimer - Don’t work for any of the above – did meet the guys at Sightix and was impressed with both the team and the products functionality that allowed me to actually understand the results... Good idea, Good product, Good luck – I think you guys have a shot!</p>Dr. DaveFri, 11 Jul 2008 14:01:42 -0000http://mashable.com/2008/07/10/sightix/#comment-6010482<p>Thanks Tom. Some people will always bash. That's just what they do :-)<br>Just to clarify, I am not a Sightix consultant and never was, so please get your facts straight before you start bashing others plus "helping in writing materials in english" is not what I do.

She is helping in writing materials in english, and does mainly what she's doing here - plugging clumsy written pr gigs "in the blogsphere". never heard an original insight from her, never will. <br>and shin1? sucks.</p>Oh my godFri, 11 Jul 2008 06:19:17 -0000http://mashable.com/2008/07/10/sightix/#comment-6010479<p>There is no real business in becoming a technology provider for companies who operate in such a competitive market.</p><p>* The big guys would NEVER outsource a critical component such as search.<br>* The small guys can not pay large amounts to make this a really valuable company.</p><p>I would like to hear those type of questions being asked by Bloned 2.0 and others. Enough coverage of feature, features and more features. I would love to see the CEO/VP Biz Dev present their business plan in details. Otherwise, this is going to be one of the rare interviews this company gets on her way to the dead pool.</p>fred wilson fanFri, 11 Jul 2008 03:51:34 -0000http://mashable.com/2008/07/10/sightix/#comment-6010477<p>Who even heard of Shin1 ?</p><p>Delver will release a public beta (no invites) next week, supporting most major social networks.
