Google: http://google.com

The Ditto search engine is "visual," hunting for images on the net. It has a list of keywords you can use and another list of themes such as Holiday, Animals, Sports, Current Issues, and entertainment.

Yep provides search results based on quality or popularity, your choice. It ranks sites based on things like the time users spend there (popularity) and how often the sites are updated (quality). You can add your own two-net-cents worth to the ratings.

At Acronym Finder, you can look up abbreviations and acronyms, a surefire way to see what's behind the shortened treasures.

InfoJunkie offers links to the latest stories on current events, technology, business, entertainment, and sports.

Scour bills itself as the "search destination for entertainment." It hunts for music, radio, movies, and software tools. Quick categories aim at stations, trailers, Web sites, and news, while a keyword search can take on audio, video, or images.
