Oodle.com?

What's the difference between this and Oodle?

vis-a-vis Oodle

Adam,

To my knowledge, the differences are:
- Vast crawls the long tail of the web and gets most of its results
from there. Oodle focuses on the top sites.
- Oodle has more categories
- Vast has more listings
- Oodle is primarily a destination site. Vast is primarily a content
router.

Perhaps Oodle will carry Vast's content. The whole differentiation
thing is overrated anyway. There's room for multiple players,
esepcially given how different these companies are and how
different their technologies and strategies are, but I'm biased
since I'm with Vast.

Classifieds are definitely in and Are big business for advertising.
