Lycos Search

Pros: has many sites, big multimedia section
Cons: some broken links

Lycos is another old search engine that has been out for a long time. Recently, they have started using FastSearch as their main search engine. Now, Google actually has some competition. If you haven't tried out this search or...

Pros: Fast Searches,Safe Secure email, Free web pages, MP3 search,Instant Messaging
Cons: Next to none

Lycos has over the years grown to be my most favorite of all search sites and has changed the way I looked at them.

For instance, after discovering the Lycos.com website a few years back I found that it had much more to offer...

Do you remember 6 years ago? January 1998, Yahoo acquired a stake in free homepage provider GeoCities. Feburary 1998, Lycos mimics the move and picks up provider Tripod for $58 million in stock. Lycos and Tripod are rated as some of the most ...

Pros: SMS service, directory search is top qulity
Cons: Needs to be a little more organised

I use most search engines and portals around the web so I can get as many different results for my search queries as possible as I want only the best.
Lycos when first mad was, in my eyes just average, but now with many improvements been made since...

Pros: Great search engine, advanced capabilities, in-depth results, fast
Cons: none

Lycos is one of the most sophisicated search engines on the web today. Their search engine is the of the best for depth purposes. It really digs deep to find the web pages you need. I have previous experience with the search engine and I usually get...

Pros: Clean design; easily seen search engine box; rich advanced feature set
Cons: Some pages had to be refreshed before the links would work

The Lycos portal and search engine has an attractive layout, and it is easy to locate what we want to find within the portal. Like MSN, the search engine is located near the top of the page in a bluish-colored area; unlike MSN, however, our attention is...

Pros: Fairly good results
Cons: none I can think of.

Ok, by now, I am sure that all are familiar with lycos.com, and their search engine. But if you are not, let me give you an explanation of what it's like. First, Lycos.com is not just a search engine, it, like most services, provides a number of tools...

Pros: easy as pie
Cons: nothing I can think of

I usually use the worst of all search engines, Yahoo. Alas one day about a year and a half ago I decided to type in lycos.com. I'm glad I did.

Not only does Lycos have the homepage that will take you to just about any subject you can think...

Pros: good free sms service, solid search engine, plenty of good Lycos services
Cons: get the normal amount of useless pages from the searches

Lycos wasnt my first choice of search engines but i gave it a crack once because i went to check out there free SMS service. What can I say about the actual search engine section? Well it certainly gets the job done solidly and always gives a good amount...

Pros: great search engine with wonderful multimedia searching and returns plenty of results
Cons: sometimes returns too many results, some results have very little information on the topic you are searching

Lycos search engine brings up lots of results and is capable of finding multimedia information as well as data information. I have had some problems with dead links and also having too much information returned on a search.

Sometimes all...

Pros: Easy to use, simple to understand/search, great support
Cons: None

Lycos really molds together a great online search program, when it offered its Lycos search capability to its webpage. Not only are it’s searches near perfectly accurate, but you always know you’re using a fast, reliable, easy to use service for all your...

Pros: TELEVISION ADS ARE TERRIFIC!
Cons: I END UP WASTING TIME BY TRYING TO FIND THINGS, HERE

I have 3 computers that I use on a constant basis, and I must admit that I have come to the conclusion that America On Line's search engine is so far superior than Lycos or any other search engine that I end up going back to America on Line, everytime,...

Pros: Not bad to look at.
Cons: Limited for some searches.

I think Lycos is overhyped. Having used it a few times and attempted to submit a URL, I don't think much of it. Frankly, the URL submisssion process on the site makes next to no sense. I've done quite a few submissions, and this was one of the least...

Pros: Great search tool and community site
Cons: Some may not like layout

Lycos Search has been one of my favorites since 1997. I've been on the net for quite a while now and have tried several search engines. Only 2 of those are my favorites. One of the is Goto.com and the other, Lycos.

I learned that the name...

Pros: Great search engine!
Cons: None that i can find : )

They have switched to using fastsearch and it is great! Try it out and you will see just how great it is. It returns with thousands of websites but it is well done with the best ones neatly organized into different sections such as shopping, news...
