    It would take years to rival Google and I don't think they will over take Google. Google is most used and the most common search engine and that is very unlikely to change for the coming years.

    true, however, with backing from top US companies, a £6 million deal and simple, things could easily change in a matter of years :)

    I don't think so. Google will most definetly be the most common and most used search engine.

    The name 'Google' is better than 'TIMMP' and'Google' is also easier to remember than 'TIMMP'. I also don't like the way TIMMP looks(the layout).

    Maybe it's a Bing ripoff?

    I don't think this small engine can win. Google has been around longer and is used by a majority of the world. They have great services, a good reputation, and just are friendly.

    I'll wish the guy good luck, but i am still using Google :P
