*jux2.com is actually a meta search engine, but I like it so much I put it in here anyway.

 

**Please note that Digital Reach Does Not Include Syndicated Listings! So for example, Overture's Digital Reach is probably far greater than indicated above due to its syndicated paid listings on MSN, AltaVista, Lycos and others.

{1} : Overture owns both AltaVista and AllTheWeb
