Duckduckgo adds holidays


Duckduckgo one of my favorite search engines has rolled out yet another feature, holidays. You can now find out which day a holiday is on that year threw a 3rd party source but all you should need to know is on the Duckduckgo search. The example they gave was Labor day which isn't the most popular holiday as most of you know. Duckduckgo has a long list of social networks you can search with there feature called Duckdcuk !Band, here is a list of sites that works on and what to type in on the search to get there results. (we aren't listing all of those in the tags)

Ask has something no one ells does Recipes search!


Ask.com is a large awesome search engine and they have something you can search for that no one ells has that I just discovered, recipes! It shows a picture of what the cake or food item should look like and and part of the the recipes then you can go to the page and see the hole thing. The Ask.com banner and iframe thing doesn't show on these it just goes to the main page that the recipe is on. If you don't like it you can go back and find a different version of the same thing with almost the same taste! This is a major feature that I intend to use now that I know about it. This is something that pulls me away from Duckduckgo, Google, and Uhhmm as well so i'll be using Ask a little more than usual.

Duckduckgo adds privacy


Duckduckgo has added a privacy feature onto there "settings." They announced the updated in a tweet but you can see them here for yourself live. Google does not offer this kind of privacy on there search, neither does Yahoo, Ask, Bing or any other search engine. Duckduckgo has caught my eye as of recently because they are rolling out great new features and they are also getting bigger, quickly, very quickly. I started using it about 6 months ago then I went back to Uhhmm, Bing, and Google as usual. I've recently started using Duckduckgo again. Its extremely good for finding out information but if you want a pacific topic you might want to use Uhhmm. I will use Duckduckgo when I need something on a wide topic that would be on, for example, Wikipeida. When I need something like how to create a paper rocket and launch it off a tree with bad wind, well, i'll use Uhhmm for that.

Duckduckgo now counts your money for you!

Duckduckgo has released a new feature that allows users to type in a math equation and get an answer on classic search. This is a feature that none of there competitors have come out with yet. To bad they didn't release it yesterday maybe they would've beat Google then!
