The similarity in the results of “Kobe Bryant” on both the individual search engines and the meta-search engines was the repetitive websites. All the search engines brought up Wikipedia.org, ESPN.go.com, and kobebryant.com as part of the top 5 results. However, the difference between the results of “Kobe Bryant” was that the individual search engines (Google.com, Yahoo.com, Bing.com) brought up current news articles regarding the topic, while the meta-search engines did not. Yahoo.com and Bing.com also brought up YouTube video results regarding the topic, while Dogpile.com, Zoo.com, and Webcrawler.com only showed basic results. Overall, I would say that the individual search engines had more current and more detailed information than the meta-search engines.
