searchmash

[Owen Densmore]

A friend recommended this to try.
   http://www.searchmash.com/

Let me know what you find interesting.  I find it to be quite fast,  
and I tried it with a few recent searches which were poor in Google,  
but I got the result I was looking for on the first page of results  
with searchmash.  So for me, it seems to have better accuracy for my  
search patterns.

YMMV.

I was wondering why SearchMash is so fast
and precise until I noticed that is operated
by Google. Perhaps it is faster because
it shows no ads... How much better would
the internet be without all these annoying
ads. On the other hand we would not have
Google then either, which seems to turn into
an ad company. Sometimes I am not sure if
Google is a part of the Internet or if the
Internet is a part of Google.. However the
new SearchMash is a bit like the old A9.com
search. It shows only the old Google results
in a slighty different form.

not bad!  I was about to give it a rave till I noticed that in a long
string of great hits there was one to one of those annoying marketing
come-ons, you know, where you've searched for 'snoodilops' and they whiz
back saying something like "oh sure we've got all kinds of snoodilops,
please just follow our lure..."  

still, maybe Google's got some competition.
