Dogpile.com is an example of a metasearch
engine.
Metasearch engines search the databases
of several search engines at a time (e.g., HotBot, Excite,
and Yahoo).
|
|
Best for an overview of
your topic on the Web, seeing which search engines will
produce the best results, and for simple searches.
Downside, they don't always
include every available search engine in their search options.
Other metasearch engines: Metacrawler, Mamma.com,
and Vivismo.com
