https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CAYQjB0&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Fcategory%2Fwolfram-alpha%2F&ei=-KJzVa6yLY-ryQTbiISYDQ&bvm=bv.95039771,d.cGU&psig=AFQjCNF7mk1YU19lbXjHngUj-Yjd2-5i3g&ust=1433728068575808
1.WolframAlpha-A search engine that calculates knowledge and answers questions. It will answer almost any question whether the question be math, history, or science. It can be used as a dictionary and thesaurus. If you type in the title of a song it will pull up the lyrics, or if you put in some of the lyrics it will pull up the title of the song. It can be used to find information about movies and plays. There are specific links you can click on such as; mathematics, step-by-step solutions,people and history, art and design, and much more. This search engine is the best that I have found for educational purposes. It has endless amounts of knowledge available to write papers, do projects, and any school related assignments.

2. Bing-bing is good for getting reviews from people you know or people like you. It is good for searching for hotels.
3. Duck Duck Go-A small company based in Paoli, Pennsylvania with only 20 employees, is different from other search engines in that does not track you. It emphasizes on protecting the users privacy.

4.Yahoo-yahoo is a great way to stay up to date with information on news,sports, style, health, beauty, travel, movies,weather, politics, and more right at your finger tips. Yahoo is allows you to set up an email account. Yahoo, to me, is the best search engine to get celebrity gossip, and news.

5.Yelp-this is a great search engine for finding restaurants, bars, coffee shops, beauty and spas, health/medical, making reservations, and other services. You type in your current location and it will pull up the options for what you are looking for nearest you. Also, they provide information about reviews and health inspection scores.

7.Yandex-A Russian search engine. Used to find a number of internet-based services and products, Yandex is the fourth largest search engine in the world (as of 2012). This search engine is much like the others, but there is also an option for translation.

  1. I love the way you had a picture of the search engine logo. I used the Yelp search engine from your page to locate different things to do on my family vacation.
