    I translate jast from top to bottom, from left to right. And (Originsl text):

    Webalta

    It is searching better (ищет лучше)
    An example: Wi-Fi points (Пример: Wi-Fi точки)
    Find in the Web (Найти в Интернете)
    Find in Russia (Найти в России)

    Hello from Japan :-)

    Here’s some info for Sagool!

    ————————————————-
    Sagool is an internet search engine which ranks results in order of interest of users. It aims to satisfy the wide range of personal curiosity which cannot be fulfilled by ranks that are based on general popularity.

    The algorithm, called “Omoro Logic” meaning fun logic, is purely Japanese, enabling users to “feel” the answer through experience of search and does not focus on giving the “right” answer. As a result, users find more in-depth information on what’s on the internet based on what’s in their interest.

    Sagool Tools :
    ・Bon Sagool (Omoro Social Bookmark)
    ・Docodemo Nazool (Omoro Scroll Search)
    * available as firefox add-on
    ・Wacaal (Current Omoro Search Words Viewer)
    ・Mitayoo (Omoro Footprint History)

    * Sagool is also available on mobile and wii.
    * Sagool is currently available only for Japanese website searches.
