FWIW DuckDuckGo sources the traditional links / results from Bing. Their Instant Answers info does come directly from other sources, e.g. Wikipedia.

Good to know, thanks. I'd heard that DDG sources its results from other engines, though I thought they were ramping up their own index. Honestly, I haven't paid close enough attention to it all. Nor have I tried Bing given that DDG has generally been good enough for me to not bother looking elsewhere.
