OAKLAND, Calif., August 27, 2008 – With school back in session and families gearing up for the nightly homework grind, Ask.com announces the upgrade and expansion of its popular children’s and tweens’ search engine, Ask Kids (
Ask Kids). Built with Ask.com’s proprietary search technology, Ask Kids delivers a search experience unlike anything for kids on the Internet today – including more relevant, kid-friendly search results presented in the most graphically vivid display of any major search engine. The Ask Kids launch advances Ask.com’s strategy of using its core search technology to fuel vertical search properties such as RushmoreDrive.com, the search engine for the Black community, launched in April 2008.
