You may have noticed that Ask.com has unveiled their latest service, their search engine portal for kids. We did hear a while back about Ask.com’s new strategy on focusing on portals (e.g. women, kids, …), so this could be just the beginning of the new direction that Ask is taking to search. The portal is OK for what it is. Kids can search for movies, games, and … with this portal. They can also draw on the front page canvas. So it is entertaining. It’s too colorful, and will probably attract small kids. I also liked the school house for kids though I am not sure how many kids will give it a try. Here is just hoping that Ask will continue to innovate in the right places. Ask Kids is a good start.
