I recommend Metacrawler and Inference Find as the best two
meta-search engines around. The both cluster results nicely -- but
differently. Metacrawler is good because it does some parsing of search
language and shows you what it sent to each search tool. One can do
either Boolean commands of +/- and get successful results. You might
want to take a look at the page
