Title: Alternative to Google
Post by: Dack on October 15, 2003, 08:01: Been using http://www.alltheweb.com (http://www.alltheweb.com) recently due to the lack of finding anything I want on google.

Also has a very interesting feature in that you can see what the last 10 things people searched for :) Some of the requests I've seen are "pregnant wedding dresses", "shed building Amish homestead" and "avalanches fan pages".

It's probably Chinese or one of the other languages that use non-latin character-sets Michelle.

That strange string is the Unicode representation of the characters I think.
