Why Search More than One?

Here is another example of a search I ran today where several search engines failed to give me the answer I needed. In particular, I was looking for a cached copy of a Web page, since the page was unavailable when I tried to view it. Three search engines failed to have any record of the page, but fortunately, that last one I tried had the page indexed and a cached copy available for me to view. The winner? Live Search. The losers? Ask, Yahoo!, and Google.
