MediaPost: "A new search engine, CONGOO, is currently partnering with premium content providers so that upon its projected launch a month from now, it can give that content away free. In a nutshell, consumers will be asked to fill out a basic registration form when they first search on Congoo. Then, when they conduct a search, Congoo will spider content from its premium partners, and display those results prominently above standard results from one of the top three search engines--with which Congoo plans, but has yet to partner."
There will be restrictions on how much free content users will be able to view, one site per search and probably a limited number from a given publication within a certain time period, but it could be a good way for premium sites to drum up interest...
