Default Favourite?

What's everyones favourite small search engine?
Which of the search engines outside the top 5 deliver the best search results. Is there anyone down there just waiting for public recognition before smashing the big boys off their thrown?

With AOL about to feed from MSN as opposed to Google then I think we will see some real changes in direction.
SE's that I like
www.turbo10.com
www.prase.us for all those 'Where's my PR????' Posters
www.7search.com

I'll go and find some more and post back.
But I don't like Ask without Jeeves, not the same really!

OK I'm back www.allsearchengines.com for a list of other SE's

Try this out - the very latest SE on the block www.trexy.com claims to be for Social Search

I am not sure if this is considered in the "top five" but I like using alltheweb.com

It is a combination of all search engines. :-)

But of course, I'm a googler first and foremost. :-P

i use google and MSN
and dont even think of small search engines because when we have the big search engines with us, why should we go for small ones?
but i appreciate the small search engines that filter results from the mazor search engines and show them in their results.

Default It's not small, but I'm having fun...

It's not small, unless you compare it to Google and Yahoo. But I actually have found it fun toying with Ask.com lately. Maybe it's the commercials, or maybe it's the "tools", who knows, but it's been something to kill time with.

Fun...fun...fun...

I think we should start a review of small and medium search engines.

I think it's depend on the information what is seek by you. If you are interested in the GNU/Linux maybe you can enjoye the
google.com/linux or
LinuxBazis but
I think the best search engine for any general query is the
Google, however I hate this company ;)
