Search Engines

When the The Virtual World was the latest cool thing, I spent hours and hours surfing the web. I'm still amazed by the amount of information you can sort through just by typing a few search terms.

Webcrawler was the first search engine I ever used. It was great, simple, gave good results and didn't have the annoying clutter those Yahooligans used to love.

(included from Altavista)

Then one fine day I discovered Altavista. http://www.altavista.digital.com became permanently programmed into my fingers from the plethora of times I typed it (I soon discovered bookmarks and keyboard shortcuts). Not only did Altavista return more results than any other search engine, it came with translation services too! Way cool, and way useful for French class assignments.

Then one fine day I discovered Google. I love Google... <describe love for google here>
