How do I search for a search engine?

I know there are new search engines out there, but how do I find the best one? It doesn't seem right to search for a search engine using a search engine!!!

Tommy, that is exactly what they want you to think. But how else are you going to search for a new search engine? It won't be long before they are all owned by the same company anyway. Imagine that you want to use, say, (fictional search engine name) "Wxyz-Universe" to see if you can find pictures of drunken celebrities or something. And before you hit "search" you have to enter your credit card number and will be charged a small amount for each result you click on. That sounds pretty depressing, doesn't it!? Well, GET USED TO THE IDEA!

Or, you know, you could do things the old way and stop by your church, interrupt your pastor from his studies, and ask him your question. He might have your answer or even loan you a book that will help. I'm not talking about The Bible! I mean an old encyclopedia or something. That might not help, however, with the funny and tragic photos of Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan.

Or you could come HERE and ask your question! I know it's been several days since you asked THIS one, and the answer may not be satisfying to you, but it is well thought out and definitely not the answer you would get when asking Wxyz-Universe-- and it's free!
