Chp 6. Useful & Interesting

In this chapter, I found the list of search engines very useful actually. Sad to say, even after all of these research papers that I have done, I rarely find myself using anything else but Google and Yahoo! search. For some reason, those two are the only ones that come to mind when I need to search for something.
Also I found the metasearch engines to be very interesting. Not only does it provide you with links to your search, but it also combines other websites from other search engines. I thought that that was pretty neat. Since I solely focus on two engines, I will be sure to use metasearch for my papers. Just so I can get more related links instead of only relying on two search engines for most of my resources.
I also noticed that whenever I have an assignment that requires me to think of my own subject, I usually come up with something that I've experiences before. I don't get too creative with my ideas until I sit there and brainstorm ideas that are familiar to me. Then I begin to jot down other possible ideas and think of how it could relate to the speech assignments.
