Healia Vertical Search Engine
Vertical health search is one area that I see growing fast over the next couple of years. So it comes as no surprise that a vertical search engine like Healia was snapped up by traditional publishing house Meredith yesterday. In fact the vertical health search segment is hot right now and I would not be surprised if more companies in this segment get snapped up including startup Kosmix Health.
