Comments and Reviews
A very fun (and now open source) small web search engine. Marginalia uses its own crawler to find interesting websites, with an emphasis on older content and independent blogs. It is a great way to find websites and posts that do not readily turn up on general-use search engines.
It's a cozyweb search engine. Like a parallel universe where webrings and obscure gems of the web can still be discovered through magic incantations of words in a search bar
Useful for finding indie sites and sites that don't rely on heavy resources. Down side is it lacks contextualized searching ability so you have to use more key word based searching methods. One of my favorite features is "explore" which gives you preview images of random sites from their index.
Quirky retro alternative
Its fun and you find weird and interesting things. Also a cool tool for researching a topic.
