Now that Google has become very big it has got power to influence our thinking by presenting information they choose. People have been taken for a ride in the past and even today. We all know names like Microsoft which is a big giant and its almost next to impossible to imagine life without it.

Somebody also suggested to me that google does filter News dependent on the region e.g. Americans are not shown antiwar news on google. It might be possible this is happening in other areas as well.

I would like to suggest alternative Search Engines which you should try when ever possible.

http://www.teoma.com
http://search.yahoo.com
http://www.eurekster.com
http://www.zapmeta.com

Note I am not anti Google but we shouldn't get addicted to one. I hope this will help you guys have a better search.

One should also try clusterers like http://www.vivisimo.com that separate sites by categories.

Also this site has a list of serach engines suitable for specific needs
