Mustn't forget Ask Jeeves (now just "Ask"). In fact for those who  
(like me) have long forgotten all the wonderful search engines that  
were around before Google, Wikipedia remembers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_search_engines

Who could forget Dogpile? (me, apparently)

Hope this helps someone! I know I'm having fun trying out my queries  
on different engines and finding that some give better results than  
Google (I'm looking at you, Altavista).

(PS: remember, just because it's Microsoft doesn't mean it has to be  
crap. They do make some very nice peripherals like the Microsoft  
SideWinder GameVoice)

(PPS: can anyone find a definitive answer to the question of "which  
search engine started using skins first?"  The earliest reference I  
can find is Ujico)
