Low Profile Search Engine

Meta-Search
Ixquick has the normal syntax options available in most of the large search engines. As a meta-search it searches:
- All the Web
- Ask/Teoma
- CNN Search
- EntireWeb
- Exalead
- Gigablast
- MSN
- NBC
- Open Directory
- Qkport
- Wikipedia
- Winzy
- Yahoo
I didn’t get good results searching for images and telephone numbers using Ixquick as I get in other search engines, but the meta-search works quite well. However, you don’t know how many results are chosen from each search engine to make-up the results you see in Ixquick, but this is true with other meta-search sites.
