Search marketing in the new media era.

German Ask Jeeves Launches, Personal Homepage Integrates with Bloglines
Ask pinged me with news of their expansion into Germany. I've mentioned their impending European expansion before.

The most interesting bit is that MeinAsk, the German version of MyJeeves, contains a "BloglinesTM Notifier, which alerts Bloglines users of unread feeds in their account, direct from the Ask Deutschland homepage."

Paul Loeffler at Ask informed me that "there is no integration between Bloglines and MyJeeves," which got me thinking... Why not? Bloglines is, for me, one of my handful of free web apps that I can't live without (gmail, blogger, bloglines, myspace). If there's a stronger tie between Ask and Bloglines (not sure what that would look like...) I'd probably search more through Ask.

Feedreader as portal ;)

Gary Price has more details on the Ask German site, where he notes that:

Last March, AJ/Ask launched Ask Jeeves in Spain and in 2004 Ask Jeeves in Japan. Btw, AJ is also testing their own Bloglines blog/feed search engine in Japan.

Finally, the SER post from December points to more European versions of AJ that haven't been officially released including Ask France and Ask Netherlands.
