Scroogle is a pretty good google(and yahoo) scraper. A scraper scrapes the results off a search engine and then adds them to a search page. This allows for an ad-free search with anomity. There are no cookies, no search term records, and access logs are deleted within 48 hours.

Interesting. But I think I'll stick with plain old google Wink

Google is better. I don't really care that the adds are there. There are too many of these things out there.

it's a good indie/anti-bigbusiness idea but has some problems. the layout is not as nice as google. furthermore, i must be missing something - what is the purpose of saving search data and session variables on self-hosted servers bought by money raised through the paypal donations? Instead, couldn't the whole site run on one low-budget server, using a single php script to take the searcher's query as a post variable and syndicate grep results from google? i must say the page on mozilla and google (http://www.scroogle.org/mozilla.html) is very interesting.

They don't save the search data. All of it is deleted withtin 48 hours. The whole site cannot be run on a single server because of the threat of google or yahoo throttleing their searches. They had an area where they answered all your questions, you may have to do a little searching in the site, though...

I don't like these wannabes that have to rely off of other reps because they are to cheap to make their own.

Google is certainly the best.

Easy to load and a great search engine

What more can you ask for?

A search engine that's a bit less secretly commercialised and arbitrary in potentially life-changing decisions?

I don't think it is practical one.

Why don't try
