Reviewing People Search Engines

Magnifyingglass2I've previously talked about the people search engine Spock and have been planning a post about Wink and Pipl.  Then I was referred to this article by a friend who attended the recent AESC conference.  I understand it was referenced in a presentation by the well respected information professional Karen Blakeman.

The article looks at Spock, Wink and ZoomInfo and tries to determine which is best.  As is often the case with blog posts you get as much value from the comments (42 so far in this case) as you do from the actual post. 

It's re-ignited my interest in investigating this area. Early next week I'll be spending time on these (and more) people search engines and sharing my findings.  If you want to give me your feedback just leave a comment or drop me a note.

pipl is awesome in potential.

but today, whitepages.com just works.

i'm curioius to see if ZoomInfo + Whitepages + Pipl would be compelling to people who want online and offline data?

I've really enjoyed (I'm here in the States) www.anywho.com

Look forward to finding out what you find out!

Rob & Jason,

Thanks for the suggestions. Will check out whitepages.com and anywho.com whilst working on my review.

Regards, Louise
