Guys,
With all the recent publicity concerning privacy concerns with current search
provider policy changes, it would be nice to update the default list of default
search providers in Konqueror to provide users a broader ranger of choices to
meet a wider range of privacy infringement tolerance....
It should be a relatively simple task since most providers publish a url
scheme to use in forming queries. The tricky part is coming up with a list that
users will want and use. If you have a favorite - reply and let the list know.
I'll look into where they go in the code. Recently Calvin suggested startpage
and it has been good. What are some of the others you like?
Startpage
AltaVista (already available)
DogPile ?

I cannot emphasize Duck Duck Go enough. They are an up and coming
search engine that are based in Philadelphia. They do not search,
bubble or track you! They provide an innovative and techie interface
that allows you to do lots of cool stuff. Best of all I don't have to
worry about being tracked.

So far I have also turned up the following:
Yauba
Ixquick
StartPage
Hide My Ass!
DuckDuckGo
^^^^^^^^^^ :)
What do you think about adding them as choices to konqueror web browser default
search choices?
