Other Search Engines

There are dozens of other search engines available on the web. If you are interested in further exploration, check the following sites.

AltaVista - one of the older search engines which is still quite effective.

Cuil - Cuil is no longer available... another casulty of the very competitive "search engine wars".

Exalead - a newer search engine with a very useful page preview feature.

Bing - Microsoft's latest search engine. Be sure to check out the Related Searches and tabs that appear with the first page of results.

If you are interested in the latest developments in search engine technology, I'd suggest a regular visit to the SearchEngineWatch site and Search Engine Showdown site for the latest news on search engines as well as web searching tips.
