GoshMe: New Vertical Meta Search Engine

Today I got an email from GoshMe, a Brazilian search company that searches/scrapes across vertical search engines, directories, news sites, and more.

Before searching you indicate in one of 17 check boxes the types of information you're searching for. Clicking boxes is too much to ask of the mainstream searcher, but I think hardcore searchers will find this is a great place to scour for information that MSSE (main stream search engines) aren't delivering.

What I like especially about GoshMe is that they display individual search engines as results, rather than trying to organize ALL the results from ALL the sources they scrape.

I plan to include GoshMe in my "search engine stable" because:

1) I can find vertical search sites I've never heard of
2) it searches the verticals I have heard of but forget about
3) I like the sense that I'm digging into hidden corners/verticals that I'm not certain that MSSEs get to.

I'm emailing them to learn a little more about the number of sources they have and see if they've had licensing issues and whatnot.
