[edit] History

The company is named after the clipper ship Northern Light, which held the speed record for the San Francisco to Boston voyage for nearly 150 years. ^[3]

From its founding in 1996 until January 2002, Northern Light operated one of the first search engines offered to the World Wide Web public for free use. The firm suffered a fatal loss of market share in this industry, and moved on.
