Google

Pros: Smart ranking strategy, big index
Cons: none, just don't use it through Yahoo

What do I expect from a Search Engine? I will compare FASTsearch (www.alltheweb.com) and Google point by point.


1) Find Rare Pages

This means who has the bigger index? Google covers 1.2 billion pages, of which it has...

WHAT'S A GOOGLE?
"Googol" is the mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeros, a very large number. The website states that this is where they got their name. There isn't a googol of anything in the universe. Not stars, not dust...

I have been using the search engine Google.com for two years now with fantastic results. I can find plenty of matches with either a specific word or phrase. For example I have used “autism schools in Los Angeles”, blisters, “cosmetic...

When it comes to search engines, my primary searching web-site in none other than Google. Google is the type of site that you can find just about anything on, and even if you are looking for the most obscure information, you are sure to find ...

Yup, now we use the name Google as a verb and when I want to look for you from a spy in the sky satellite I just have to Google your address and it's big brother watching you! More in a bit. Google is amazing. Pop in a few key words and you find all ...

The World Wide Web is a very wonderful thing, full of oodles of useful (and useless) information. But what good is all of that information if you can't get to it? That's where Google comes in. It simply blows away any other search engine out there....

I always like going on the internet, no website specifically, and just looking around to see what I can find. Sometimes I type in “funny animals,” or “games” just to see what website will come out to help pass the time. Google is my main...

Could you imagine the Internet with out search engines? The Internet runs on search engines / links. I must not be the only person out here that thinks so. Google is one of the Top Ten most visited web sites on the Internet today. That...

Pros: A lot of neat little options, accurate search, quick search, toolbar
Cons: I guess the design isn't the most attractive in the world

Before I sat down to write a review on the Google search engine, I was thinking to myself "Just how the heck are you going to write a review on a search engine that barely makes the 100 word limit?" I mean, it is a search engine. Type in...

If you’ve used other search engines and weren’t satisfied with the results, then you need to Google it! In the past I was a dedicated Alta Vista user then an Epinions member turned me ...

Pros: Quantity, quality, and advanced options.
Cons: No search engine is perfect (but this one is close)

Google (goo-gul) is my top pick in the search engines category. I play engines a lot, and Google has the largest number of URLs organized (1.6 billion), the easiest basic search tools, and the best advanced tools. Google is less commercial than...

Pros: Very Fast; Gives a Detailed Search showing where it found the words in your search
Cons: No cons at all!

When I was in graduate school, working toward my Master's Degree in Business, I was constantly faced with meeting time deadlines, writing papers, and giving presentations. My PC quickly became my best friend. I was constantly on- line, looking up...

Whenever I use a search engine, I usually turn to Google to find the most accurate results. On the last occasion I used it, it was actually suggested by someone else. You see, I had called Sports Unlimited to order some soccer shin guards, but they did ...

Pros: speedy, easy to use, yields many hits
Cons: you have to backclick to return to the site listings

I didn’t try google.com until very recently because frankly I thought that with a silly name like that, it can’t be very good. Once again proof that names influence perceptions. Anyway, I’d been hearing rave reviews of it here on Epinions,...

Google is absolutely my favorite search engine. If I have to look up something specific, I will always go here. Usually I will be able to find what I want.

Google has many features that are easy to use. You can use as few as you want or as...
