Pro and contra meta-search engines

For: Ministry of Railways save a lot of time, relieving from necessity to enter search in each separate search engine. Results, in most cases - are extremely relevant. Ministry of Railways can be used by web designers for finding-out, whether there is their site in main PS, what ratings at him{it} and as far as links are popular.

Against: As the some people PS and catalogues do not support additional technologies of search, such as inverted commas in which phrases consist, or Bulevy operators, at application of such technologies as a result of Ministry of Railways there will be no results with such PS, or these results will be inappropriate.

Ministry of Railways are four kinds:

- "Real" Ministries of Railways which unite / range results on one page

- "Pseudo" Ministry of Railways of the first type which group results on search engines on one long page

- "Pseudo" Ministry of Railways of the second type which open a new window for each used search engine

- Search utilities - program search means

The detailed information on each of four types of Ministry of Railways, and also the ratings made by me is below resulted:
