A Meta Search Engine sends your queries to several different search engines at once and then displays the results from the different search engines on one page. An example of one of the more popular ones is Dogpile.
If you conduct a search on Dogpile, for example, they'll send your search terms (the words you type in the search box) to Yahoo! Search, Google, Windows Live Search, and other search engines at the same time without having to visit each one individually.
Some other examples of Meta Search Engines include Metacrawler, Ixquick, and Clusty.
