Accoona, no Matata !!

Accoona search engine, created end of 2004, was backed up with a lot of publicity and communication (the presence of the President Bill Clinton at the inaugural Ceremony in New York etc.). Based on Fast's technology of search, Accoona had at this time great ambitions both on the Anglophone and worldwide web.

They just surrendered and all local sites give now the same goodbye message...

It's a pity, despite a few good ideas and a too late attempt to refocuse on a B2B solution Accoona couldn't resist against the hard and cruel competition on this market (and to the buying up of Fast by Microsoft ?)

Remember that the brandname Accoona came out from the Swahili saying "Hakuna Matata" that means "No problem, everything is under control" and have been brought to the knowledge of the public thanks to the animated feature film "The Lion King" produced by Walt Disney.

Unfortunately, the search engine proved wrong the meaning of his name...
