I can't find any significant coverage in WP:SECONDARY sources for this software. The two secondary sources in the article are blogs. It's true that one of them is Yahoo! Search Blog, but it's about the acquisition of this software by Yahoo. It might be merged with Yahoo, but seem rather trivial to mention there (one of the many start-up they bought), and it's not mentioned in any book on Safari (web browser) I could search on google books, so it's probably WP:UNDUE and WP:SPAM to mention it there.

- The MacWorld article, republished in Network World is a reasonable review; further, because Inquisitor (now) works for both Firefox and Safari, a merger would not be appropriate. The other stories are news of the company's acquisition by Yahoo, which I've already indicated above. Closing this before the guys busy with BeLight Software arrive to say that the MacWorld review doesn't count. :-) Pcap ping 18:29, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
