RedZee: Yet another visual search engine
When you enter a search term, RedZee goes to work trying to find web pages matching your query. RedZee then arranges screengrabs of those web pages on a sort of wheel. Drag your mouse left or right to cycle through the pages. Double click on one and you'll be taken to that page. Sort of.
What actually happens is RedZee keeps a toolbar at the top of your window while loading the new page. That comes in handy, because you can easily open multiple pages and flip back and forth between tabs, all within a single web browser tab. But it also means you lose a tiny bit of screen real estate. And if you want to copy the page URL to your clipboard, you're pretty much out of luck.

Actually, you can always just use the fast-loading Google Preview Firefox add-on. It loads almost instantly, and the search results are much faster.

Not only did it NOT find any results for "ubuntu", but it couldn't even say it correctly: "RedZee did find any search results. Please redefine your search and try again?"

RedZee may be making an effort to be interesting on the search engine side of things, but it certainly seems to me that this is nothing but window dressing and a nice diversion from how they really bankroll their operation ... by scamming people with their sponsored search offering.
To date, I have yet to find a single person who has had a positive experience with the RedZee Top3 product and just about everyone who has had anything to say about it has claimed to be the victim of a con.
