Straycat Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Oddly enough, I think http://search.yahoo.com/ give more accurate results than www.google.com I'm not the kind of guy that easily change habits, but I've quickly found myself using yahoo almost exclusively (quite handy when the interface is almost the same as Google too ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Betong Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Hi All, Anyone tried the new Google Search Engine? Want to drive traffic? Try the Google Free way. Google Free is search that's fast, easy and yes, absolutely free Treat your visitors to the same search service you use yourself. With Google Free, it costs nothing to provide Google search results to users who want to search the web or just your website. Google Free web search Google Free SafeSearch Google Free web search with site search Use Google Free search the same way you use Google.com and you'll get exactly the same results. Please be sure you understand and agree to our Terms of Service or you may be asked to remove Google Free from your site. I like it since it especially since it 'Googles' your hard-drives and the search results show up as follows: 427 results stored on your computer - Hide - About SEO Help - Business SEO F.. - Search Engine Optimization SEO Help SEO - Aug 25 The search bar can sit on your task bar, sidebar (and everything shrinks down to suit) or in a floating bar. The two latter options also have nearly a dozen shortcuts to Email, News, Web Clips, Scratch Pad, Photos, Quick Views, Weather, etc. I have not used all the facilities but initially it does look good.

Straycat Posted August 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Yeah, I saw it after a search on Google...but not when looking around at the site. Basically, this "Google Free" thing is an update of Google Desktop, v2 Beta, to be exact. I'm using it right now...we'll see if it's useful.

kamui Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Usually I am not an big Microsoft fan, but the IMHO the MS Windows Desktop Search ist much more comfortable than the Google Desktop Search. And I have read somewhere that the search results are better as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
