Project 15. Search Engines

KartOO
 This is a search engine that gives visual displays. It directs you to a variety of alternate search engines and will give you a visual map to hover over to pick which link you use to search.

Bing
A search engine very similar to Google. A student could use this to spell words, research subjects or to cite works.

MSN
This search engine can be used for news and current entertainment. A student may chose this option to search for current affairs and political science.

Ask.com
Formally Ask Jeeves, this site is out of date. It is also associated with compromising your system and downloading Malware and viruses.

Brainboost
This system seems interesting. It searches for answers to a given question. It then gives you a list of options to search through related to that subject.

WolfAlphafram
This can be used to search or for calculations. It not only gives you the answer but gives a step by step instruction so that the student can see where the answer was obtained.

Sweetsearch
This could be used by a student for credibility to a blog post or for information on research. It only searches for websites that have been proven credible.

AOL
This was very popular in the 1990's. It is still used by many middle age Americans as a search engine. It utilizes email and messenger. It can also be used as an Internet service provider.
