The Top 100 Alternative Search Engines

Posted by ryuzaki0 on

ReadWriteWeb writes "Search Engine Optimizer (SEO) Charles S. Knight has compiled a list of the top 100 alternative search engines. The list includes Artificial Intelligence systems, Clustering engines, Recommendation Search engines, Metasearch, and many more hidden gems of search. People use four main search engines for 99.99% of their searches: Google, Yahoo!, MSN, and Ask.com (in that order). But Knight has discovered, via his work as an SEO, that in the other .01% lies a vast multitude of the most innovative and creative search engines around."

  1. Search engines, uh?! by schmu_20mol · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Since when are sites like digg, del.icio.us and last.fm considered to be search engines?! Some of the other listed sites are also nowhere near what would spring to my mind when someone says 'search engine' - just see for yourself.

    This article / blog is a farce.
