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.

HotBot - now offers access to the Inktomi search engine as well as a common interface that lets you run comparative searches using Lycos, Google, Intomi and Ask Jeeves.

WiseNut - another new search engine with the useful WiseGuide categories feature.

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

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