better way to search internet?

The best way I've found is google.com... maybe I should try
ask.com again... for example, I search for the artist
crunch, just to find out information, anything I can
possibly find and as much as I could find... but
aphextwin.nu doesn't get listed as a search result... even
though crunch has been discussed here... so therefore, there
must be much more discussion about, say, crunch elsewhere
that I can't find...

images.google is my favorite, then next is standard
google.com

i also use alta vista and msn quite often...

alltheweb.com is pretty good interlingual search... check it
out

google.com is probably the best out there, just because it's
so simple and fast, and searches so much stuff.

I agree with XLR....Google seems to be the best search out
there.

I guess there's just very little about crunch on the
internet. I wanted to read up on labels too, just get some
information... like how to go about starting one, any
specifics and details etc. history of labels like musik aus
strom, schematic etc. I need to search more for that stuff,
just about anything about them. Labels are there to make a
profit on artists I'm pretty sure, but it doesn't have to be
so negative... like funkstorung seem to be totally cool to
artists on their label since they're artists themselves...
if the artists want to release something on a different
label, it's cool with them etc. They only release stuff they
like, not poplular stuff to make a profit.

Google, it's the only one that can search .pdf files and is
generally very good.

www.dogpile.com metacrawler
Best I've found. Searches all of the top search engines in
one search.

search engine quality is always changing and i've done a lot
of research on different types of engines, because lately
i've found google to be a bit lacking in comprehensive
searches.. it's still quite good though

there are two excellent metacrawlers out there that search
the top search engines [wider range of results than google]
and send your results back in nice relative groupings and
specific unique matches:

My fav's:

* Ixquick - searches everything, great ranking
system

* Queryserver - one of the best i've seen, organizes
relevance of results into very handy "result clusters".. has
other cool searches; currently my homepage

hope you'll find this useful, cheers :D

m W m: using the Queryserver engine i found an old review
from absorb on crunch's "1", turns out there really isn't
much on them at all.. although rumous has that it's just
funkstorung moniker (seems quite likely)

Crunch - 1 review

Cool, I havn't read that review... it never showed up in any
search... it is however old because it is now known that
crunch is Tipper and some other guy. I'll try these, thankx

Google...but dig down deeper for more details on how to use
it to it's full extent...

some of the advanced search options are so smooth onece you
get the hang od them....

And for .NU MB turning up in Google...thats a good thing
really, I've spoken of things here that I wouldn't want to
follow me around in the future...

And it's also probably because it's DB driven so they can't
be indexed by any Search Engine...or maybe Pnob has set
ROBOTS.TXT to tell search engines to "/bugger off" ....

Google rules!
I like the way that they change their logo for special
occassions and celebrations throughout the year. Did anyone
see their Olympic logos?
