Nice idea. I'm curious about a few things. 1) Without asking you to copy/paste the four points from your About page here, how do you see yourself as being different than an engine like SquirrelNet, which has been around a long time? 2) What was your motivation to build this? Why you / why now? 3) What's your expectation of usage/growth? Any money behind it or just launch and see? Thanks!
Heads up, everything I'm searching is returning "Oops, looks like your query contained some bad words. Please try again!"

It is great that the search query is kids safe...what would be awesome is, if it was also, kid relevant. For example, when I searched for Fat Cats this was part of the first-page search:
Lorenzo Nichols - Drug Dealer - Biography.com
@kyradeprez It looks like the content is tailored to kids. In my search at least, when I tried "space", the second result was the NASA Kids Club. That doesn't show up on a regular Google search -- I get wikipedia.

@manasvinik I do agree that it is somewhat tailored to kids, but it still needs some work for sure. I was simply searching for things that my own kids would search for, when the Drug Dealer biography was the 4th item in.

Love the idea! I tried to find inappropriate content for the past 10 minutes (for science), and not once did I find anything inappropriate. Relevance does suffer a bit, though. Image search can definitely use a lot of work. Also, the ads to the right can offer an easy loophole around safe search. Other than that, it's very promising!
