Excite.co.uk is certainly one of the better search engines about. I use excite constantly and always find what I need.
But that's not all excite has to offer, free webmail, free sms text messages, news and much more. It is all on Excite.
As a search engine it offers all the basics, UK Searches, Web Searches, MP3, Videos and a very good Advanced Search Engine. If you have never used an advanced search then try the one at excite, it works very well.
Searching the internet is always much easier with a search engine that works, one that does not offer you loads of advertising banners, just a staight forward search site works best, and that is what Excite is.
The free SMS text messaging service is also very good, unlike some of the others about, messages sent via excite always get to their destination and normally in a very short period of time.
Even the email service works well, all internet email is basically the same, advertising banners on most pages, slow speeds, and many do not offer compatibility with email organiser (ie Outlook Express), even though they say they do. Excite email is no different than others, although the advetising is not too 'in your face', it is compatable with email organisers and it is suprisingly easy and fast to use.
As a combined Search, Webmail and messages site, you can't go wrong with excite.co.uk
