Real Estate Forums

Other Search Engines Altavista, Alltheweb, Teoma and many other search properties exist on the internet, although nowhere near the search volume of the big 3. Discuss any other search engines here.

Google is the best for getting relevant info quickly. I agree that Dogpile is a cool idea, but they include the paid ads in their algorithm which seems to make the results less accurate.

It is pretty cool asking a machine a question and getting a million relevant answers.

In terms of personal use, I like google especially with the power searches. Although to be honest I like using the firefox add ons and the probably influence me a bit as they're mostly amed at google

Anyone use Icerocket? I still use Google although their results lately are a little screwy.

I hadn't heard of Icerocket before you posted about it. Their web results are provided by Google, but they have a cool blog search and even a MySpace search. Interesting.
