Nice reply - Alexa is the equivelent of an 'ashtray on a motorbike' - it is fundamentally spyware via the toolbar - it can only read and relate to browsers on ISP that have the Alexa Toolbar installed. It gives artificial results - Imagine holding a tin can with string attached to another tin can - make the string taut and you can talk to and listen to what the other person at the other end can hear and say.

That's Alexa - A two way conversation that only people holding the tin can benefit from.
