My favorite comparison source is the Netsearcher's Cheat Sheet at PC
Magazine's web site:

http://www8.zdnet.com/pcmag/iu/srchsite/cheat.htm

The Cheat Sheet originally appeared in the December 3, 1996 issue.  If you
have a copy handy, it's a handy cheat sheet to carry if you don't have a
portable with your bookmark file stored.
