COOL SITE OF THE WEEK:
qbSearch
qbSearch is a metasearch engine that allows you to select up to up to 20 result pages from
each engine and see the results combined into a single, scrollable page (it works much
like Quickbrowse; see link below for full review). While this function is neat, allowing
you to transcend the result limits most search engines impose, the REALLY cool feature is
called qbView, which lets you click as many result links as you want, which don't
immediately open but rather are assembled into a single NEW page, which you can save and
update without having to re-run the search. Very handy for quickly scanning sites you know
are updated regularly. Be sure to check the qbView box on the search form to get this to
function properly.
