Use a search engine
	All the Web A good but less well known search engine that now rivals the size of Google in terms of web pages indexed. It is one of the very best for finding sounds, music and video on the net and can be clever at understanding what it is you are looking for.
	Ask Jeeves A popular search engine that claims to be different because you can phrase your searches as questions. In reality, it works in much the same way as most search engines and can actually be slower than many of its rivals. Again, it can't touch Google.
	Copernic Copernic 2001 is one of the most useful tools for searching the net. It simultaneously uses all of the best search engines on the internet to provide results that are more likely to match your query. This site allows you to download copernic for free.
	Daypop This is a fantastic place to search for news and current events from a very wide range of sources. Daypop lets you seek out news stories from over 7500 different news sites and weblogs, meaning you get wide coverage from a number of good sources.
	Google The best search engine on the Internet bar none. Google is fast, effective and brilliantly simple. This is the UK version that allows you to search only British sites if you want. Quite simply the best there is.
	Lycos This is one of the most famous British search engines and may be worth a try if you want good British searches. However, it's still not a patch on Google.
	Netscape Another famous portal that is maintained by the same people behind the increasingly marginalised Netscape Navigator internet browser. Still worth a look though.
	Yahoo Yahoo is one of the most famous search engines and portals in existence. Its search is powered by Google and this guarantees better than average results.
