  www.duckduckgo.com as a search engine,,?? Rush has recommended this in light of all the recent findings on google using and "fixing" your personal information on the web. Wikipedia has a very informative article on it and it looks to be gaining ground because of the recent news bout their questionable tactics,,,,???

In July 2010, Weinberg started a DuckDuckGo community website (duck.co) to allow the public to report problems, discuss means of spreading the use of the search engine, request features, and discuss open sourcing the code.[29]

The next month, Union Square Ventures invested in DuckDuckGo. Union Square partner Brad Burnham stated, "We invested in DuckDuckGo because we became convinced that it was not only possible to change the basis of competition in search, it was time to do it."[30] In addition, Trisquel, Linux Mint, and the Midori web browser switched to use DuckDuckGo as their default search engine.[31]

We didn't invest in it because we thought it would beat Google. We invested in it because there is a need for a private search engine. We did it for the Internet anarchists, people that hang out on Reddit and Hacker News.

Fred Wilson, 2012 TechCrunch Disrupt Conference in New York[32]

By May 2012, the search engine was attracting 1.5 million searches a day

I`ve been on it for 2 days with no problem,  I think it is faster than Google.

I use to use one out of Canada, can't remember the name (as usual), but it was the cat's meow.  FASSSSST and gave results that were EXACTLY what you were searching for.  It got pulled and I sure miss it.

It was Vroosh.com
Maybe my memory isn't as bad as I think? LOL
