InfoSpace, Inc. and
Google Inc. today announced an agreement to bring Google's search technology to InfoSpace's network of Web search properties and affiliates, which
include
Excite,
Dogpile,
WebCrawler,
MetaCrawler and
InfoSpace, among others. In addition to providing Google's search results, InfoSpace's meta-search technology, which searches multiple search engines at once, will
also include results from the Google Sponsored Links Program, a paid advertising service that complements Google's search results with targeted text-based advertising listings. The re-launch of
MetaCrawler, also announced today, represents the first integration of Google's services into InfoSpace's network of Web search properties. Google results are planned to be available throughout
InfoSpace's properties and affiliates by the end of this month.
