Searchenginitis may have a cure

It is a disease. Gertrude is still trying to pit one search engine against the other until she cannot cope with herself any more. She is gripped. She searches the net for search engine search comparisons and ends up with many sites that help her sustain her delirium.

• Blind Search comparing and voting for results from Yahoo, Google and Bing without the familiar ambience of the search banner, font and logo

For Google Vs Bing

• Bing And Google. A direct compare.
• Stringy - Again a Google Bing search comparison
• Black Dog - to do a Google Bing search comparison

Introducing firefox and Wolfram

• Google and Wolfram search comparison using a Firefox addon

Then there is Yahoo Vs Google from

• Google Guy and
• Twingine. Only, it can substitute one of them with Bing at will.

Veering away now: What is Yahoo!7, anyone? There seems to be, from Yahoo!7, a search engine called Alpha which has been in the Beta state. It comes up with classified search results arranged in quadrilaterals in the periphery of the main results.

With all the three big (or should she say b.y.g.) names , add a fourth one to compare using:

• Mixxr. Which throws Twitter in as a contender

Supposedly visual is..

• Langreiter. A slightly incomprehensible join-the-dots-like comparison of Yahoo and Google

GoScout itself a search engine, it compares results using a medley of search engine comparisons with names of ancestors - like Lycos and Ask - she had heard of in the far past as a teenager.

And, a Google Bing amalgam (which sounds a bit disturbing?)

• Bingle. which doesn't need much elaboration.

Collecta! A search engine for now. The use-and-throw result set. What is hot off the press. Turns stale later. That is a whole other topic, Gertrude decides. She is exhausted as she comes across an unwieldy search attribute comparison tool from google called Google Squared. This time she is away by a few degrees from the Semantic Web. Isn't she?
