I know that there are tons of search engines out there, though many people here prefer Google (people like me! hehe). Anyway, I was reading some articles and found this . It's about a new San Francisco-based search engine which is trying to beat out Google's indexing service. The search engine is www.alltheweb.com and it seems to work fairly well if you ask me.

PS: I searched the forums and didn't find this anywhere, but if it is, let me know and I'll take it down.
