Search Engines

I enjoyed looking the other search engines. I am one of those people that gets stuck in a rut. I find something that works and I stick with it. I found that in each search engine I found something I liked. In Mamma, I liked that on the right side it gave me a choice to refine my search. In Rollyo, I liked that on the left side it has the sites the searches came from. For instance it will say: Entire Web or it will list specific sites. In Dogpile, it has Are you looking for? and Recent Searches to help you browse the search engine. They all seem very organized. In Mamma and Dogpile if you misspell a word they ask you if you were searching for the "correctly spelled word" but I found that in Rollyo when I misspelled a word, it automatically found what I was looking for regardless of the spelling. It might not have been the first link on the page but it still found a link with the correctly spelled word. I think that maybe I would have to be careful with that.
