Blind Searching...

I found the blind search exercise interesting. The first search I did pertained to chickens. All 3 search engines had the same 2 hits, then they each veered off in different directions.

The second search I did for Styx. Again all 3 search engines had the same 1-2 hits, then veered off.

The third search I did was for my name. Boy, there were differences all around.

Not surprising, my preferred searches ended up being Yahoo. That could be because that's what I use all the time and the wording/phrasing were more comfortable for me because that's what I see all the time.

Just my .02 worth.
