Since, another Russian site <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20070703-allofmp3-com-breathes-its-final-breath.html" title="Name change, or shop closure??" target="_blank">AllOfMp3.com just got virtually nuked</a> by the Russian govt recently, I am not sure how long Tagoo will survive. But, who cares, eh?! If not Tagoo, something else is bound to come up.</p><p>I decided to try out Tagoo for some Indian (as in &#8220;Country next to China&#8221; &amp; not &#8220;Native American&#8221;) music. Did a search for &#8220;India&#8221; &amp; got all <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.indiaarie.com/" title="R&amp;B Singer" target="_blank">India.Arie </a>mp3s&#8230;hmmm, fair enough. Its my mistake I gave such a vague term. Next I tried &#8220;Tamil&#8221; (yey!!) &amp; got <font color="#ff0000">4 results</font>!! Hmm&#8230;I sure do lack basic searching skills <img src='http://kannan.jumbledthoughts.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' title="Another MP3 search engine   Tagoo! (Jumbled Thoughts)" /></p><p><span id="more-179"></span></p><p><a href="http://kannan.jumbledthoughts.com/wp-content/upload/2008/02/tagoo1.png" target="_blank"><img src="http://kannan.jumbledthoughts.com/wp-content/upload/2008/02/tagoo1.png" alt="Tagoo searched for Tamil" height="75%" width="75%" title="Another MP3 search engine   Tagoo! (Jumbled Thoughts)" /></a></p><p>When I typed &#8220;<em>Tamil</em>&#8220;, Tagoo helpfully suggested &#8220;<em>TamilMp3Zone</em>&#8221; for me. I clicked on it and voila got 20 pages full of results&#8230;wait, why am I seeing results for &#8220;<em>Zone</em>&#8220;, shdn&#8217;t &#8220;<em>TamilMp3Zone</em>&#8221; be treated as a single word?</p><p><strong>Bottomline:</strong> My initial impression is, Tagoo is fast, but lacks the relevancy in search results that Google has spoilt us with. Good start, though! I really need to admire people behind Tagoo, for  bringing out a mp3 search engine during these troubled seasons.</p><p>P.S: Wanna bet how long Tagoo can hold on against <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.ifpi.org/" title="IFPI" target="_blank">IFPI</a>?? <img src='http://kannan.jumbledthoughts.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' title="Another MP3 search engine   Tagoo!
