Well now, that was interesting. I did a search on "Mexican War" and was pleasantly surprised that all of the results concerned the conflict back in 1846-48, rather than modern drug control conflict, which one gets a lot.
One think that did annoy me right off, though, was that the left-hand column of the results was cut off. It looks like about 4-5 characters on the left didn't show. Crippling, no. Annoying, yes. I got over it.
I was quite surprised by the results. As of recent I have been having more success with Bing as a search engine. This time, however, the column I chose turned out to be Google. It had the largest number of relevant results, in the order that I would use them.
Yahoo's answers were wacky and off the wall, and indicative of why I don't use Yahoo except as a last resort.
Just for fun, I ran some more searches, and very quickly could pick out which engine was which. (Hint - Google is fond of Wikipedia and Yahoo is fond of more obscure sites.)
Interesting assignment.
