Reflection for week 2 - Search Engines

Dr taught us about search engines. I just realized that there were so many search engines out there. Some i don't even see before. Such as Dogpile, Vivisimo, Mamma, Yahoo kids and etc.

"Search engines are programs that search documents for specified keywords and returns a list of the documents where the keywords were found. A search engine is really a general class of programs, however, the term is often used to specifically describe systems like Google, Bing and Yahoo! Search that enable users to search for documents on the World Wide Web.-www.webopedia.com"



Besides, I found one that is interesting- ECRP ( Early Childhood Research and Practice). It will be useful for me as I am taking early childhood course. I can get the latest update and be alert of what is the issue faced in the early childhood education. One more caught my attention - Yahoo Kids. It has lots of things you can do such as games (the one kids like the most), movies, sports, E-cards and so on.  Children surely can play and even learn through this search engine. 


This game is called Moshi Monster. I totally falling in love with the graphic. It is so adorable!!




Ben 10! One of the kids' favourite as well.
