image thumb13 Tired of all the Haram results in your Google, Yahoo, Bing searches? Switch to ImHalal!

Google, Yahoo, Bing, there is so much from those who are not Muslims and therefore there is an immediate need for a Search Engine dedicated for Muslims across the globe. Welcome ImHalal, the halal search engine that makes sure every result you see is not haram (forbidden) for Muslims. The idea sounds quite interesting, given that despite all the filters you have set at Google, etc you end up with one or more images, links, etc that are indecent and you don’t like them appearing the least on amidst your search results. Which means if you are searching for nudity, NSFW links, etc all you will get is a notice that says your search query is rated 3 out of 3 and is haram. If the stuff you search for is rated below 3, you are displayed the warning but you can access the links if you are willing to. Very interesting but I have been offended, because when I searched for Startup Meme, it marked it at level 2, meaning that Startup Meme might have content which is Haram. Ahem, excuse me but all that has been covered on this blog are sites, startups, funding, etc. Can anyone please point out the Haram in Startup Meme, I will gladly remove it.
