Just think about it, maybe you need to fix a simple problem you have with your car.

For me personally I am excited to see what search engines will evolve into in the future. The sky is the limit. Who knows what type of search spiders the future will spawn, but one thing is for sure there will be newer and newer search technology it’s just our human nature to keep trying to top ourselves.
I've found new search engine that name Find.com, this is a relatively new search engine like using Yahoo’s Application Platform. After testing many search terms you can find all of the results to be very relative. Infact, I like the results a little bit more than Google’s on some of the terms.
In Find.Com, you can find anything that you need without searching. You just type word in search box, then you will get directly to the results, I have tried it many times its ability many times with different keywords like when ifind about design, and tutorial. It is fast growing that by end of the 2008, it is expected to reach to more than a thousand articles. These are written by experts and professionals. You can be assured of credible write-ups.
You can search all articles ranging from art, business, home, politics or anything you want. I think find.com has a very user friendly interface which makes your search very easy use and gives results according to your needs. For people who are looking for a simple,easy to use yet fast search engine this is a best place to visit, and find all at find.com.
