I realize yahoo, google, etc is the most typical search engine. But does any one of you have a favorite that's not well known to others that does so well for internet researching?

I may be biased but I really like the search engine my husband built - Codehead Search - I can usually find an article or blog post there to help me with a technical issue that is otherwise hidden among a zillion other search results on Google. Otherwise, I'm a straight Google fan (one of the millions of other sheep who blindly accept them as our leader....lol ) __________________ Stuck in startup? Stop dreaming. Start DOING!

#11 (permalink)   11-03-2008 ThaiVA New Member   Join Date: Aug 2008 Posts: 25 Re: Favorite Search Engine? I'm generally a Google user. Although I'm becoming less impressed with the quality of the results it spews out these days. I think it was more accurate in the old days. Although I hate Microsoft and its products (mainly due to the bugs they contain), their search engine www.live.com (MSN Live Search) has been giving me some very accurate results recently. Results that seem (subjectively, I admit) to be less spammy than Google's.

#13 (permalink)   02-01-2009 DMurrayVA Contributing Member   Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Isle of Lewis Posts: 50 Re: Favorite Search Engine? Leapfish.com is fantastic. You don't have to click the search button as it searches on every letter you type. Some could find that a little irritating though! __________________ Diane Murray, Scotland www.theadministrator.co.uk
