Icerocket is Cool
Well, I was all prepared to give www.icerocket.com a great rating, but then I looked up "epth". But first, the good:
- Many of the search results have thumbnailed screenshots, which allow you to see where you're going before you go there.
- You can search in News and Images (but not newsgroups) like in Google, but you also can search "blogs", "Phone Pics", and Multimedia (which is mostly a conduit for purchasing MP3's from "legal" song services). The Image Search is better, and includes some things like Webshots and Getty Images, which I always thought should be included in those things anyway. What I'm trying to say is it's fun to play with, much like Google was when it first got popular.
- Using Icerocket with Firefox makes you feel like you're really sticking it to the Man somehow. It makes the internet seem new and not boring.
- The amount of search results seems to be equivalent to the other search engines.
