Google vs. Yahoo
Did you ever wonder which was the better search tool? (I know I have, but then I am a bit obsessed with the topic of Internet search techniques). I came across a a strange little tool that allows you to do a simultaneous search in both of these tools and then creates an interactive graphic comparing the results between the two:

Go to the above site and type in something you are interested in (your company name, your own name, whatever) and then click the compare 'em button. Give it some time to come up; the results are not instant because it needs time to create the graph. When the graph comes up, move your mouse over the various dots. To view a page, click on its corresponding dot. The dark dots designate pages that are in both search results.
Pretty neat!
