This is a directory of useful search engines that I believe to be good and worth knowing. Not all new search engines are worth knowing but these search engines all offer something unique that I believe will help in your day to day search needs and make your more productive. I will be updating it (adding and removing!) on an ongoing basis so be sure to check back for new discoveries. Also feel free to submit or discuss new search engines that you think we should all know about!
