2. www.dogpile.com
....kind of a 'meta' search engine - it spawns off your search to google, yahoo, askjeeves, and others.

I used to like AltaVista, and I still do for BabelFish, but have found dogpile to be better.

4. I don't like dogpile - clusty is better
Clusty also gleans all the others, but it does a lot more by categorizing and creating relevance as well as providing other tools. Dogpile is a pile of, well, your mileage may vary.

6. Dogpile here too, but I've recently discovered Clusty
If I understand correctly, it takes out those results like: Find Democracy on E-Bay! Or: Find Howard Dean on Classmates.com

I'm not sure if that's by design, but it seems to do so.
