I am sure most people use Google when doing internet searches. Many do not even realize that there are so many other, and some even better, search engines out there. Every search engine has different features that could be useful to the user. For example, some engines provide visual search tools or related searches that enable the user to narrow down their search easier. Also, depending on the search one might find that some search engines will give results that are pertinent to what you are looking for while others do not. So, your challenge is to explore the search engines below, pick one to really look into. Do a search of your choice and post a comment explaining what you found that makes this search engine different than Google.
Bing helped me find what i wanted easier because it brought up more legit websites with more variety of shoes.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know they are legitimate websites? What other search engines did you try?
ReplyDeleteask.com helped me find out more information about weeki wachee, florida. it has a related search column to make it easier to find other things to search. It also shows pictures of the town and the history behind it. most of the websites that showed up were .org or they were historical sites

ReplyDeleteI liked Bing the most because not only did it come up with many great websites about slavery, it also has boxes on the home page picture that have interesting topics you can look up
ReplyDeleteWhat are the boxes on the home page for? Can you please explain this. How does this site differ from Google.
