I would like to see some more blog entries in order to gauge how the website is doing. I am sure that the non-communication has caused many users to leave because they believe the website is not working or donating money. Actually, ¿Is it donating money? It would be nice to have a status report on the Library project

I am a relatively new user of Search Kindly, and I have been reading the blog entries in order to get a brief history of the website. I used to use GoodSearch because it donated more money per search, but then I saw that they keep half of the profit for themselves. That is horrendous! I'm staying with Search Kindly for good! Keep up the great work!

Why not give us some general opinion questions to vote on just to give us something to click on when visiting your site when we have no search to perform?

First, it seems totally unfair to me to blame the SK staff for an inappropriate ad. Syed has explained many times that he does not have control over which ads are displayed. Are you angry that he does not insist on personally approving or rejecting each ad? How do you even know that there is an ad provider that allows such control?
Amer. Green Card, www.americangreencard.com, offers a "service" of correcting digital photos for a US visa program: see www.dvlottery.state.gov for info.

Why would a supposedly 'charitable' website advertise a scam as blatant as the American Green Card? It's disgusting! I refuse to use this website ever again.
--Sorry about that. We don't have any control over the ads that are displayed. Basically, all we can do is ask our ad network to limit the ads to those that are family-friendly.
Out of curiosity, could you tell me more about the American Green Card advertisement? I've never seen it before, so I'm curious as to what about it was so offensive.
Thanks. --Syed

What exactly is the "library box project" that's almost ready? I'm excited to hear about it!
--Oh...did I write that it was almost ready? Although we're making some progress on it, we won't be able to move forward on it until the IRS grants our tax-exempt status. The reason we need that designation is because we are going to be hitting up corporations and foundations for grants money in order to build out the boxes. But we are getting all of the logistics worked out!
Thanks for your interest. --Syed

Syed,
I haven't written for "years", since I first became aware of SearchKindly.
I want to pass on something I have done that you might suggest to others.
With Windows XP (and probalby Vista) that allows you set up several tabs that all open when I turn on the laptop, I set up one tab with SK. That way, whenever I need to search for anything, it is sitting right there. I use it sometimes even when I know the name of the website I am going to.
Keep up the very good work.

No update since May 31... What's up with the project?
--Sorry about that. Yes. things have slowed down a bit due to the limbo-state that we are in. I'll make a call to the IRS in the morning to see how far along our final review is. Just a waiting game... --Syed

Is Search Kindly on hiatus? I'm just curious as to if money is still being accumulated, or what's going on with this library program because it seems like it's been a while since there have been recent updates?

Hey, just wanted to let you guys know that there is a new charity search engine that uses google, givoogle.com. But it only gives charity to one organization, the American Cancer Society.
