Izito A Nice Free Metasearch Engine

We all have our favourite search engines but it’s always a good idea to keep an eye on what else is out there.

I came across Izito  after looking at Mamma, Dogpile, Ixquick and others. The others all had one problem or another such as results that didn’t include Google and advertising that was mixed up with the results.

Izito gives search results from Google, Yahoo, Wisenut, fast, Altavista and Live search and the ones that the results are from are listed below the results so that you can tell which result is most popular. There are also clusters on the left which can be useful.

Display Google Search Results In Two Columns Using A Grease Monkey Script

If you have a big screen then you are probably annoyed with Google for just letting the results go off the screen instead of listing the results in 2 columns and taking advantage of your screen.

A script for Greasemonkey can help you out though and automatically make Google list in 2 columns, the results are also numbered for ease of use.

Sometimes it’s the smallest of things that make the biggest difference!
