Accoona wants to be your search engine. As this article explains, they’ve been spending a lot of time and money to be better than Google.

The killer app for Accoona seeme to be “SuperTarget your search,” a series of drop-down menus located where you’re used to seeing AdWords ads.

Look for something using their news search, and you can further refine your results using drop-down menus for when published, publisher, relevant company, country, state, people mentioned and media category. The business search provides SuperTarget drop-downs for business type, city, state, country, company revenue, total company employees and people mentioned.

It’s way too early to say whether Accoona is going to give Google any sleepless nights. Try the SuperTarget function, though; it’s pretty good.
