Now it's time to click on "Find Jobs" and a list of opportunities will appear on the screen as if they were results of a search engine. Each one directs you to other sites on the specific sections of them where you can apply for a job or position .

Cheap Cell Phones

These websites brings lots of information but tend to be very general, so if you are looking for specific brands, you should establish your web search based on keywords as "cheap at&t cell phones", "cheap t-mobile cell phones", etc. Establishing the keywords of your web search in the way "cheap" + "the name of the company" is perfect to obtain specific results.

Scary Squirrel Games

A popular search term by these days on the US is "Scary Squirrel Games". What can we find about this on the web? One of the first search results will be Www.scarysquirrel.org/games. There you will find a selection of online games, which means that you can play them directly on your web browser.

You can see motorcycle tittles as Stunt Makers, adventure games as Super Mario Defense, among others. The latest games are listed near the top of the screen, but you can find all the games that the page contains going down the screen.

Next to Scarysquirrel.com you will find some search results regarding reviews of the site. For example, you will see one on Aboutus.org in which Scarysquirrel.com is described and categorized; keywordspy.com will list some keywords regarding that games site.

Well, this info is useful for webmasters or website reviewers, but, surely, what people most want to find are just games. One search term that is similar is "evil squirrel games". I'm not sure if that one is related to scary squirrel games, but what's true is that these keywords show you more games sites. One is Www.evilplayer.com. There you will be able to play more online games. The search engine would direct you to a flash game on that site which name is Smacky. This game reminds me of Happy Tree Friends cartoons: it has cute characters which hit each other.
