IF 'bisarok' is supposed to be an imperative verb as opposed to a noun, I guess it could be appropriate, ( as in 'aapuni bisarok etiya').
But I thought in this context it was meant to be the name of the search engine, as a noun. If so then it won't be appropriate,considering the widely prevailing meaning of the Oxomiya word "bisarok': A judge.. I will however stand corrected. Did not mean to split hairs g here :-).
