do with its mysterious search-engine company, A9, Web

surfers finally got their first taste on Apr. 14.

on leading sites such as Google and Yahoo! , the site

(www.a9.com) -- still in test mode -- rises as many questions                   2

as it answers.

through A9, would clash into Google more directly.                              4.

Google itself is testing a search engine for products

called Froogle that's starting to appeal Web shoppers.                           5.

At the same time, Amazon clearly isn't looking to limit A9's horizons. 

How directly A9 eventually goes up against the reigned                           6.

the contents of messages to pitch personalized ads. But comments       

posted on some sites already indicate some people are

uncomfortable with Google's potential threats to privacy.                          10.
