Ask.com

Search Engine update

The butler retires -Ask Jeeves has a new identity and provides deeper and more relevant Internet search results.

"The Ask.com Toolbox, located on the right side of the homepage, can help get you to speciality databases (like the dictionary, picture search, local search, etc.) quickly."

From Gary Price - who is working with the revamped search engine - Ask.com is still a work in progress, but add it to your bag of search engines.
