Found an intersting article on the PC Magazine website that deals with new search engines that are supposedly better. You will need to make up your own mind.
Here is an example:
http://www.adaptiveblue.com/
BlueOrganizer is a Firefox add-on by AdaptiveBlue that adds semantic browsing features to your browser. The add-on lets you directly share links on del.icio.us, Twitter, Tumblr, or Facebook, but the really cool feature is its ability to find similar pages and sites to the one you're looking at. If you're reading a news article, for instance, and want to read more stories on the same topic, simply click on "Similar Pages on Google" and you'll be presented with a list of relevant search results to choose from.
There are many more examples at the following website. As I attend more and more classes, I can see where some of these search engines would be quite beneficial.
