New Size Showdowns: iWon & Google on Top

I have finally updated my Relative Size Showdown and the Total Size Estimate analyses. Using 33 search terms, and verifying the actual number of hits available, iWon (using an Inktomi GEN3 database) and Google certainly found the most. The half billion record databases can find more, but they did not find that many more hits than some of the others.

Note that only with the iWon Advanced Search (which does not cluster results) was used. The basic iWon search will only display one page per Web site with no option for seeing the others.

New Brief iWon Review added with this information and a list of some of the databases available on iWon.
