8 Billion
Males use to deny the importance of size … In its early stage Exalead tempted to explain that - beyond the billon pages treshold - big numbers were all the same, the race of billion indexed pages with Google, MSN, Yahoo etc wasn’t (so) important.
NEVERTHELESS, Exalead is today in the light of sight to index 4 billion Web pages by the end of January [see update source].
So be patient, the search form (top on left on this blog) should be far more effective by that time before Xmas.
Glad to see these guys growing fast in the billion unit and probably soon not only in terms of Web pages … [the (€billion) question being, will they know to bind to their strong technology assets outstanding business acumen too?]

Hi Ray,
Thanks for your post. A minor point: we shall reach 4 billion web pages by the end of january, not the next two weeks. As for the €billion question, we're working at it :o)
