#1.) WolframAlpha: WolframAlpha is an excellent search engine for finding calculations. Not only is this site useful for solving algebraic equations, it can also find nutritional information, probabilities, gas prices, weather, and so much more! You can find movie times and tickets in your area or even find the answer to a calculus equation. I typed in “Alabama,” just for the heck of it to see what would show up. It immediately provided me with the capital, the state’s full name, and the year it joined the Union. Unlike a lot of search engines, WolframAlpha supplies you with direct information instead of showing you 20 other sites to use as resources. This is an excellent search engine to obtain just about any kind of knowledge.
#2.) Bing: Second, I chose the search engine Bing. Bing is used to search all kinds of things on the internet. It also allows you to use key words to help you find specific information. You can shop, as well as find local information, weather, and all other things of that nature. Bing is somewhat similar to Google, but not as useful in my personal opinion.
#3.) DuckDuckGo: duckduckgo.com, provides you with instant information on music, recipes, weather, and other things of that sort. I like how you can customize as you go. Duckduckgo allows you to personalize your search engine experience by picking your own theme and layout for your visual pleasure.The best thing about this search engine is that it does not track you whatsoever. It doesn't collect personal data or keep any record of your searches so you can be clutter free! The spam rate is lower than Googles and it’s family friendly.
#4.) Care: care.com is an excellent search engines for parents or guardians in search for caregivers. This is also very useful for caregivers looking to build their resume and find work. This search engine is not only for child care, but for senior, pet, and home care as well. It allows you to view possible candidates for your future caregiver, as well as background checks to ensure your loved ones safety. You can also create a profile and look for work as a caregiver. You can find a caregiver in your area and easily provide the information needed, such as what days and times they would be requested, and any other accommodations that may be needed.
#5) Yahoo!: Yahoo! has so much incorporated into one search engine. It offers some of the following: weather, horoscope, local news, world news, shopping center, email, game center, health, beauty,finance, and so much more! Yahoo also is very easy to navigate around. I use Yahoo! almost everyday.
#6.) WebMD: If you want health information, then WebMD is your go to search engine. You can find information on managing your health and also remedies for treating illnesses. WebMd also matches your symptoms with what could possibly be wrong with you, so if you can’t go to the doctor then this would be a good tool to use to help diagnose your illness as long as it’s not serious. All of the information has been approved by certified doctors, so you are receiving expert information and advice. WebMd also shares top health news and stories.
#7.) eHow: eHow.com is the perfect search engine for “how to” questions. It offers over two million articles and videos to help you find exactly what you are looking for ,and teaches you how to do things. The videos are great for visual step by step instructions. When I visited the site, I learned how to transfer ink onto wood and make chocolate covered strawberries on one page. The site has a good number of categories, so you are sure to find something that interests you.
#8.) Kayak: I chose Kayak because I believe it is a very useful travel search engine. Kayak lets you compare over 100 travel sites at once,so that you can make the best bookings to accommodate your needs. You can compare prices and find the best deals on flights and hotels. Kayak allows you to book your flight, hotel, rental car, and more on one website.
