I love
A9 as a search engine. Yes, I started using it because I get a discount on my Amazon.com purchases by using their toolbar. It uses Google's database so I figured why not. What I have come to love about it is the ability to receive search results from multiple sources on a single page. Typically I have it perform a regular text search but also an Web image search and a
Flickr search at the same time. I'm not always looking for pictures but the image results I get can sometimes make me think about my search and/or just give me a laugh. Today I got a laugh out of a search for
nerd tv. I was just looking for the site's URL but as the first Web image result I was presented with an image of Tom Baker as the Doctor being menaced by a Cyberman (right). Why this result appeared, I'm pretty sure I'll never figure out.
