BENGALURU: In addition to connecting us with the world, Internet provides us with vivid knowledge and research related to every single matter. But the desired result comes into existence only when the search is done properly. Generally people opt to search through renowned search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo. But do they have the knowledge of other efficient search engines? If not, then you must go through the following compilation to improve your way of searching online, in reference to TOI.
Meta Search: It is highly recommended to search using least two to three search engines to get the information required because sometimes most of the common websites display the same result. But it is really headachy to refer to various services again and again. So it is better to use the meta search engines.
Meta search engines pull data from multiple services, extinguish the duplicates and re-order the results. Dogpile.com (queries Google and Yahoo), Zapmeta.com (Altavista, Entireweb, Gigablast and Yahoo) and Search.com (Bing, Blekko, DMOZ aka Open Directory and Google).
One searching for multimedia may refer to search engines like search.creativecommons.org. This may not be a meta search engine but can help out you with your queries regarding Flicker, Fotopedia, Google Images, Open Clip Art Gallery and Pixabay for images, ccMixter, Jamendo and SoundCloud for music; and YouTube for videos.
