DuckDuckGo has a 'bang' feature, where you add a bang like '!g' to search a different site directly.

For example, '!g hacker news' becomes 'https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&q=hacker%20news'.

Sorry, I understand that part. Was wondering what you meant by this (specifically the part about a "filtered down view of the world"):

"I find this better even just for the fact that I don't get the filtered down view of the world anymore - if there are things named similarly than the ones I use in the world, I want to know, so I can adjust my own naming."

It wasn't a loaded question or anything, not sure why I got down-voted either... (shrug)
