Japanese Linguistics Expert Takes Page from Google’s Page!


Attention Bloggers! Words You Use on Web
Can Be Used by Others to Get Rich!

Boyé Lafayette De Mente


A Japanese linguistics and algorithms expert named Yoichi Inagaki has developed an Internet search engine that hones in on the words that people use to express themselves, and comes up with a profile of their mindset that reveals their likes, dislikes and prejudices down to the nub.

After graduating from Tokyo University, Inagaki studied at Stanford University in California for two years (where one of his classmates was Larry Page, cofounder of Google). He then returned to Japan and began research on algorithms that would identify trends in the chaotic atmosphere of cyber space.

But much to his surprise it was soon discovered that his new search engine could predict coming hit products—something that is worth gold to designers and manufacturers.

In January 2007 Inagaki set up Kizasi Company, Inc., and began preparing to go international with his new search engine, first targeting Chinese and English language audiences. [He should have come up with a company name as good as Google!]

Now, women writing on the web can be profiled down to the color of panties they like to wear—and why! So if you want to avoid becoming an unwitting marketing drone pay attention to the words you use on your blog.
