3. Google seems to be in it for the money, a part from bing and Yahoo!. Google seems to focus on advertising products and seems to be a stronger affiliate marketer than the other two meta-search engines.  If I were doing a search like this, I would prefer to use Bing or Yahoo! because I would not be interested in buying anything, I would want actual information about alien encounters, and would have to scroll through too many pages to do so.  I was surprised to see that Bing and Yahoo! both had the same results. Google certainly stands out like a sore thumb in this search.
