I am in the proecess of setting up a list of European sites devoted to search engines and Internet searching.

The English speaking world has sites like Search Engine Watch, Search Engine World and Pandia, but we all agree that many -- if not most -- Europeans prefer sites in their own languages, so where do they go?

I have found three so far:

[at-web.de...] @-web-de (German)http://www.abondance.com/ Abondance (French)
[voelspriet.nl...] Voelspriet (Dutch)

Any others?

Continental Europe's answer to Search Engine Watch. Very classy.

Here is a very good one. I think it's the best place on the net to find Euro engine information (seriously):

[webmasterworld.com...]

There is no where else you find things like:
[webmasterworld.com...]
[webmasterworld.com...]
[webmasterworld.com...]

What a resource Jan has put together here for us.

He-he. Thanks Brett. Actually I pestered Per Koch about the very same thing in July. While we are at it - and if I may say so myself - this might well be the most comprehensive article on European search engines ever written (so far): [webmasterworld.com...]

Brett is right, of course, Webmaster World is one of the most valuable sources of European SE information, and rencke has written the definite survey(s) on the topic. So definite, in fact, that any attempt on our side to write something similar will be a copyright infringment :).

Thank you all for your help (and kind words). The Russian site will be included.

Hello Henk,
nice to have you here! You could surely help us in making our discussions on European Search Engines an even more valuable place.
We have to ask all of you anyhow to send further links to Per Koch directly via sticky mail. Please donīt post any further links in here. I guess as experienced webmasters you all understand the dangers of appearing like a free for all link dropping place :)
