A new search engine hopes to generate cash from targeted ads by filtering data for 50-year-old-plus baby boomers who lack the patience to wade through pages of results.

Launched earlier this week, Cranky.com is the brainchild of Jeff Taylor, who founded the online employment site Monster.com and is CEO of the media company Eons Inc.

The new age-relevant search engine is designed to simplify Web searching by processing requests from the perspective of someone at least 50 years old.

Eons has teamed with Compete Inc., an online market research company, to identify and analyze 5,000 of the most popular Web sites used by a group of 500,000 users aged 45 or older.
