I recently discovered Ecosia (ecosia.org). Seems to use results from Bing, maps from Google, and has an easy 'out' to show results from Google.

Nice 'hook' as well. From their About Us page: 'Ecosia is a social business run by a small group of dedicated people. We work together to create tools that empower everyone to easily do good by planting trees. We believe our trees have the power to make this world a better place for everyone in it.'

Thanks for mentioning Ecosia. I was actually working for them over a year ago.

They're a bunch of really good people on a great mission.

Ecosia has a great business model, if I wasn't already a dedicated DDG user I would switch straight away...
