The Internet is (potentially) a source of lots of information and content. However, you need to look around (I.e. search) for sites that meet your needs and/or answer your questions.
Google is not the only search engine out there. There are lots of competing engines – Yahoo and Bing are just two of them. Since each engine builds its own listings of what is in the Internet, a search on one engine will return different results than the same search on another engine.
One way to speed up your searches is to use what is known as a metasearch engine. Such a search engine allows you to enter a search term once. The identical search is then submitted to a number of different search engines at the same time and the aggregated results are returned to you.
Wikipedia provides a list of metasearch engines (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/List_of_search_engines#Metasearch_engines). My favorite is Dogpile (www.dogpile.com). It submits searches to Google, Yahoo, Bing, Ask.com, About.com and others. Ignore the weird name and give it a try. I think you’ll find it very useful.
