Reflection

Day 5

Today, i continue on doing practical 4 and 5. I added comments on the search engine(Google), meta search engine(MetaCrawler) and subject directory(Google Directory) on what the results returned. I also compare and evaluate the 3 search facilities and from this i know that for search engine, the searching capability is high as it searched through its databases for results and the results are wide in range so i can have many choices. Meta search engine is searching through other search engines' databases, so the searching capability does not quite suit my needs for results. Subject directory is created and maintained by human professionals, so the links for websites are lesser than search engine and therefore the searching capability is not suitable for me as it is hard to get my results.

Overall, i choose search engine as it suits my needs for results searching and it is the most common used search facility nowadays.
