Hva ejust come across this website. www.oblatoo.com
"Oblatoo is a search engine with a difference; every time you perform a new search 1p is pledged to charity.
You can choose your preferred charity from the list of charities that we work closely with so that your searching will have a direct benefit. To find out how to support a particular charity click here.
You can see the total money pledged increasing as searches are made in our bid to raise £1,000,000 for charity.
By searching with Oblatoo first you are helping to raise money for charity. It is free to use for you and the charities.
The name Oblatoo is derived from oblation, meaning a charitable offering or gift, and as we all know, every top search engine has two o's in it!"
The results are powered by Google, so you would get exactly the same results using this as using google, but by benefiting charities aswell. :T
