I talked about Kosmix, the company I work for, during my lecture at SFSU's MBA class MGMT 831: The Entrepreneurial Process, which is taught by Professor Geoffrey Desa.
The students had some good feedback on Kosmix in their (anonymous) class feedback, which I have written down below:
- It was interesting to learn of the new search engine Kosmix. I liked the different approach that it used in that it contained a list of related items.
- In addition to his presentation, I also enjoyed the discussion about Kosmix. It was rather interesting to see that someone had actually developed a search engine for people who don’t have a clear vision of what they’re searching for. I think it’s helpful to know that such a search engine exists and I would definitely support the usage of it. For some key terms and projects, I often only pick up a few important keywords and it seems that from those keywords, I would be able to search up the related topic I’m looking for.
- Learning about Kosmix and how the idea was born was a good example of the creative process in action. An idea to offer something beyond the norm often leads to something great. I believe that Kosmix offers something the Googles and Yahoo's can't.
