I've been following Kagi's development for some time now and the idea looks promising. Not sure if the team plans to develop its own crawling engine and index that won't depend entirely on sources such as Google/Bing/Wikipedia, etc. Right now, it seems like the results are 90% google results without the ads (which is still a big plus). However, I'd like to see if they can pull off indexing of (maybe a smaller part?) of the web on their own -- that way they can completely get decoupled from Google and not put their fate in the hands of much bigger players.

Anyway, exciting stuff and I wish the team best of luck!
