Projec t#15: Search Engines

There are countless number of search engines that can be found on the internet. Here are a list of 8 that explored with this past week.




1: Wolfram Alpha, I have just recently discovered this site. I found this to be more beneficial for students who need help with math or science.

2: Sweet Search, this site is a site for students looking to validate their resources. This site is composed of expert researchers to help you validate your resources.

3: Blinkx, since videos and movies are becoming more integrated in the education system and are used more and more often as research sources then this site will be extremely useful for all students

4: Pipl, this is a search site that helps you find information a specific person.

5: Kidrex, for those who are studying to become elementary teachers then I recommend this search engine for your class. This site is designed for kids so all sites that are considered inappropriate are blocked.

6: Dogpile, This search engine "fetches" the results of Google, Yahoo!, etc. as well as search engines that provide vidoes.

7: Duck Duck Go, this search engine is similar to that of Google, but it doesn't give the user personalized results so the results of what ever it is you search is the same for everybody.

8: Ask, this search engine focuses more on answering questions rather than just being a out right search engine.
