Alot of people have told me the search results come up better ( More towards topic etc etc )... Try it and get back to me. I think it's the same.  |  | Distinguished Member with 6,903 posts. | | Join Date: Jun 2004 Location: Wichita, KS Experience: Priceless | | seems a little less precise to me. I don't think it searches as many sites either.
Also seems to have less choice. www.metacrawler.com www.dogpile.com
I think those two are better choices, but I use google more often. Still the best I think. |  | Distinguished Member with 28,003 posts. | | Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: Wisconsin Experience: Far from beginner or expe | | Quote: |

However, that's just one try. |  | Community Moderator with 32,942 posts. | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Texas Experience: cp/m --> | | what it advertises it clustered results, much like vivisimo. For pure search, I use google, but if I need to find AAA, plus all other things related to AAA (expos, compaines, ppl, etc), then I use vivisimo or clusty..... |  | Senior Member with 980 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2005 Experience: Im good, in Bball.

That sums it up well.  | | | Distinguished Member with 6,903 posts. | | Join Date: Jun 2004 Location: Wichita, KS Experience: Priceless | | Well, I think (could be wrong I guess) it also depends on the user. After spending how many years now on google, I think I have learned how to find just about anything real fast. | | | Community Moderator with 32,942 posts. | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Texas Experience: cp/m --> | | funny story: My mom is threatened by anything more technical than a spoon (and not one of those fancy 'convex' ones, either), and when I was thinking about buying her a laptop a few years ago, she mentioned 'why'.....I almost had her sold on the idea, as I could send pics of the grandkids and all, and she coould do her own searches, saving me a some time.....well, long story short, she told me to go find whatever lipstick Barbara Walters (baba wawa) interviewee was wearing that night, and when I couldn't, *bam*....no sale....rather embarassing on my end....now she COMPLETELY distrusts me when it comes to technical stuff.....hahahahahaha
