Guruji.com: Baidu of India?

Madhur Khandelwal at iLeher wonders if the recently launched Guruji.com becomes the Baidu of India giving Google a run for its money. But there are important differences that should be noted before making comparisons.

Mihir notes down the challenges for Guruji even if it hopes to challenge Google at a game that it plays best.

I thought ByIndia.Com was the Baidu of India. Web2 Corp recently bought ByIndia. OK, their are many aspirants to be the Baidu of India. It all started with Khoj

Well, we havent seen any noticeable progress in terms of market share or popularity by either ByIndia or Khoj. Thats why it is interesting to see where Guruji goes. Also the fact that they have raised quite a bit of money from big names like Sequoia makes it even more interesting.
