Danville, CA June 4, 2007 — Sproose, an upcoming search engine with technology allowing users to rank the index of results, launched today a new voting platform inteface so users can easily rank their favorite sites. Former Netzero Executive, Bob Pack who helped raise its initial funding in 1998, founded Sproose.

Sproose uses a “human popularity voting” model where users can self- rank the index creating personalized search results. The more users that vote a site the further up in the ranking it goes.

“The new look is much more visual providing a total score of the voted sites and a ranking system that improves upon the algorithmic based order,” says Bob Pack, CEO of Sproose. Users merely need to click on the “I like it” icon next to the search result and the index will refresh immediately moving that site up.

Registered users may also display their voted sites if they elect to. “This connects people in a social way to share knowledge through (search), states,” CEO Bob Pack.
