Thanks Robert, this sounds reasonable.

So, let's put our heads together and each contribute what we think are the
top 10 search engines, okay? (in no particular order)
Lycos
Alta Vista
Hotbot
Inktomi
Excite (bought Magellan, AOL Netfind is an Excite front end)
Webcrawler (owned by Excite, operated independently)
Infoseek (Search.com is a front end for Infoseek)
Northern Light
Snap
...and I'm not sure what the 10th one might be.
NOTE: Yahoo, Looksmart and it's ilk are not on this list, they are not
search engines, the are compiled direoctories.
My list is non-scientific to be sure, I can't quote you figures proving
these are the most heavily used, I only suspect they are.
