Findhow : reliable how-to content for eduacators

Findhow is a great search engine that i am adding to my list of educative search engines for teachers . Findhow provides trusted, reliable How-To content on the Internet. If you are looking for how to do things then Findhow will bring you just the right ways . I have tried and find it really interesting .
FindHow, the How-To search engine, brings trust back into the equation by focusing on indexing only high-quality How-To's, typically from well-known, recognized brand names or individuals. Many of these sources (often companies, government entities, or educational institutions) have other motives for providing information besides pure profits, and most have trusted, off-line brand name reputations to protect - which encourages them to focus on providing trustworthy and high-quality information.
