Search directories

I think, although search directories are often said to have better and more reliable information than search engines, I feel search engines are better tools for finding information. They come up with more, and better results. In almost all of the research I have done, I have used search engines and they have always been efficient and they have always worked well for me. From what I know about directories, they seem to have less results. However, I do think it is a good idea to monitor the information you are using in the search engines. It is good to use web sites that end in: .edu, and .gov they are education and government sites and the information is almost always reliable. This is how I usually get my information and I think it is the best alternative for getting information off of the internet,
