Most of the information nowadays we find on the internet. Google is definitely the most popular means of searching, but new ones are popping up.</DIV><BR /><DIV>These look like a couple interesting alternatives to google: <A href="http://www.mahalo.com/" linkindex="1">Mahalo</A> and <A href="http://www.hakia.com/" linkindex="2">Hakia</A></DIV><BR /><DIV>We'll have to see how they develop. Mahalo is very 'human based'. It is actually moving forward having real people "searching, filtering out spam, and hand-crafting the best search results possible". If they can do it, it may be a way to get quality results in a short list.</DIV><BR />Hakia doesn't have the 'human factor'. It is a search engine with a different (supposedly) algorithm for determining results. According to the site, "<SPAN class="Regulartext"><DIV>similar to the human brain's cognitive skills - rather than by the mere occurrence (or popularity) of search terms".</DIV><BR />Let me know what kind of results you see.<BR /></SPAN></p> <DIV></DIV> </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/468FC64E-02D5-4ABD-B840-C99455479060/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
