Search engine

[IT guy]

whats the popular seach engine in india , is it http://www.google.com or http://www.yahoo.com

Yahoo! is not a search engine, even though it provides a search facility. I'll cut n paste the following which I found on their site (help section):

Your search results will contain matching web pages and web sites provided by third-party search engine providers and the Yahoo! Directory.

From the above, it is obvious that it relies on 3rd party search engines to do the job.



With regard to popularity, I would say 'Google'. People have even started using it as a verb, in place of the word 'search' :) Something like what 'Xerox' has become in the photocopying world.

Did you know that google claims to use clusters of trained pigeons for its accurate results ??

Surely you'll(like me) not believe what you just read.. but go ahead and check whats mentioned on the official google site
