Kosmix board is quietly getting beefed up with Former AOL CEO, Jon Miller joining in. Kosmix has till date raised $25 million from Accel Partners, Lightspeed Venture Partners and few private investors including Jeff Bezos, and Bill Miller of Legg Mason. For the past more than 1 year Kosmix has been offering a vertical search engine, where you get aggregated results from Health, VideoGames, Finance, Travel, Autos, US Politics in a portal page format. I am not really sure how the growth has been at Kosmix. Will try getting updates on that. Kosmix isn’t the only one working to grab Google’s fringe users and in turn gets its hand on the vertical ad-search dollars. We would for sure see more of them.
