Fun!
It is similar to the combined search engine I am a fan of Clusty www.clusty.com
(Which has apparently changed its name to Yippy--not sure if that is much better...)
However, it combines results for multiple search engines then displays
sub-headings, which it calls clouds, on the left to help narrow your search.
Try it out!

Subject: Share: Google Wonder wheel
Just found out about a powerful research tool. Go to Google and type in a
topic. On the left will appear a menu. Near the bottom is "Wonder wheel".
Click on it. A "story web" will appear in the middle and, on the right,
appears a list of sites that correlates with the topic of the web. Click on
one of the topics and another web appears with a new set of related URLs! I
love this.
When you are done playing with that go back to google. Type in presidents
and add squared behind the word. Play with this too!!!
The things I am not too old to get excited about! =))
