METASEARCH ENGINES FOR THE WEB

The following links will take you to web pages where you can instantly perform a metasearch, which is a simultaneous search of the entire web, using different "search engines".

Search engines, such as Google, Yahoo, Lycos or Alta Vista constantly scan the content of all sites on the web and compile the results. However, different search engines use different criteria, so the most comprehensive search technique is metasearching which combines the results from many different search engines.

Ask Jeeves - A search tool that lets you ask questions in ordinary language.

Dogpile - A metasearch engine which groups results by one search tool at a time. Includes more than 20 search engines.

Ixquick - A simultaneous engine that can search for web pages, news sources, MP3 files, or pictures.

Metacrawler - A simultaneous meta-search tool.
