		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m not sure about this idea.  The &quot;Jetpacks&quot; would only have value if the manually created search results were better than the normal Google search results.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But they don&#039;t seem to be, at least for the examples I tried.  For example, on Jeteye searches for &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://jeteye.com/search?f=webjeteye&amp;re=search&amp;q=news&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;news&lt;/a&gt;&quot; and &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://jeteye.com/search?f=webjeteye&amp;re=search&amp;q=amazon&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;amazon&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, the Jetpacks shown appear to be much less useful than the Google search results below.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Some might argue that this will get better with time, but I have a hard time believing that these manually created search results ever will be better than the automated relevance rank from Google.  In fact, I&#039;d suspect these Jetpacks will mostly be spam, created by people who want to drive traffic to their own sites.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Jeteye&#039;s Jetbot was doing a really good job last year with burning up bandwidth on a pretty large scale:&lt;br /&gt;
www.platinax.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=1149&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Shame that they gave up on trying to make the spidering work, as it&#039;s hard to see why the world needs yet another meta-engine with a single gimmick.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Maybe I&#039;m too stupid, but I&#039;m missing the pain point it is addressing.  I can see why people would want to share stuff like photos, music, links, etc. but a) packages of content so that b) they are searchable by c) a group of people?  x) when would I need to do this? and y) why would I spend the time to do it?  I guess I&#039;m just not seeing the value created here.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
