Agreed. There are only a few players with a large web index now. Google, Bing, Yandex, Gigablast, Baidu, Naver.
Others that I can think of are IXQuick (not sure if they use their own index or not) and Yioop (smallish index). There really is a lack of large players indexing the web.
Its also possible that we will see the rise of niche search engines, such as iconfinder.
