Continuing with my “What happened to?” series, I don’t know if anybody here still remembers Edsa.com.ph.
It was one of the leading web portal/search engines back in the late 90s, going against start-up portal Yehey.com. Edsa.com.ph (formally launched during the anniversary of EDSA Revolution in February 25, 1997.) was dubbed as the First Search-Enabled Web Directory by Janet Torral’s Philippine Internet Review. It was developed and maintained by Evoserve, a local ISP company who also happens to own EdsaMail.
Jason Banico, former CTO of Yehey was one of those who developed/upgraded the search engine EDSA.com.ph into the horizontal content portal, EDSAWorld.com. Today, both Edsa.com.ph and EDSAWorld.com are nowhere to be found (up for sale by domain squatters).
On the other hand, EDSAMail is also having problems of its own.
well at least netscape lives on in firefox and not in netscape!
