Popular Search Engines

The links below will take you to some of the more popular 'search engines'.

These are the starting point for locating information concerning
just about anything you can possibly think of.

One of the most important things to know when using one of these
search engines is how to properly structure & format your request.

For this reason I have also included several links to pages which detail
the different ways which you can and should request information.

Search Sites For Kids and
       Young Adults
These sites are designed to 'filter out' sites which contain information
and/or images which may be of a 'questionable' nature. They are very
useful when doing research  papers, homework or just browsing for fun.
