Basically a beta search is a service that still has bugs or known restrictions (e.g. is not yet fully stable and scaleable, is missing feautres defined in the technical product specs etc.) A meta-search /from my point of view/ is a service that gathers results from various search-engines based on your querie and than displays them on the search-engine-result-pages. ~f hi diane
