Search Engine
Which search engine do you normaly use?
I use Google mostly. EDIT: ahhhhhhh... can't edit poll, forgot to include other. I just added the ones that all my friends use, I don't know why they don't just use google, cuz theydon't care what they use. Last edited by nubbler; 11-01-2004 at 01:41 PM. |

Since the first day that my PC got connected to the net, I have been using Google.
And since the Google Toolbar is around, that's how I use Google RJ

I used to use the google toolbar, but I have a big habit of just either typing in www.google.com, or simply clicking its hyperlink on my homepage. Plus im too lazy to reinstall it on my browser, since i had to uninstall it awhile ago.

Ask Jeeves occasionally when I have an exact question I'm trying to find an answer to.

Google is so prevelant in applications and presence on the web that it is hard not to have used it...before Google, though, I used Yahoo!. But Google - toolbar both in Mozilla Firefox and MSIE6.

It's interesting that nobody uses Yahoo cuzsome of the big sites like CNN use yahoo for site search, and they used to use google. Most sites I've seen switched the other way around.

A long time ago I used Alta Vista when searching the web. Then I tried Northern Light. Even tried Dogpile and Lycos. I just don't like the "portal" look of them...too much unnecessary "stuff".
Been using Google exclusively for about 4 years now. Cricket

In the past i used yahoo a lot because thats where my main e-mail address is and so i set it as my homepage as a conveinence. So then i ususally searched at yahoo because i'm lazy. Then i stated using the google search box in firefox. Recently yahoo changed their site design. To me their new design looks horrible, just to cluttered and to many colors. I went ahead and switched my homepage to google, you can't beat their nice simple design.

Google as well.. I also should mention AskJeeves because I do go there on occasion. It seems fairly comprehensive.

I start with MSN; I just type in my search in the address bar. It's very rare that I don't get what I want, and in those cases I use Google.
