Even though many of the search engines use the same search back end, there is still a difference in the results and in the level of privacy. It is IMHO great that people use these smaller search engines.

It is also great that there are search engines that build their own index. It is a tough nut to crack, but great to see people trying and I hope they succeed!

In some ways the larger search engines are getting worse each day with more and more auto-generated content dominating the results. Clearly that is not what most of us want, so maybe there is an opening.

I agree with you that early days Google, Alltheweb and Altavista in many ways provided better results than what we see today.
