Which search engine do you use when you're looking for something - does anyone not use google now?
 
Google, and since I became aware of them from their recent advertising campaign - Ask.com

It's good to have a choice and it's quite interesting to see what each one misses.
 
I've just tried ask now for a few search phrases and it seems ok actually. Yahoo is just far too bloated for me (on the homepage) and gives some really bad results sometimes.
 
Google first then I use Altavista which I find top notch aswell...:nod:
 
Google for me too, and I have it as my home page because it looks "clean" and uncluttered by ads and links all over the place.

Another good one that I've added to my Firefox drop-down list is http://www.ixquick.com/ which claims to be:
The only search engine that deletes your personal data.

You're right. I've been using Yahoo for a long time and this has finally spurred me on to changing to Google which is much simpler. We sometimes need a kick to get us to change.
 
Google.

MSN just copied Google's simple form page.

Ask is different, I use that too. askJeeves :D made me laugh all those years ago with the butler :D

Many years ago I used to use Altavista at school to search for mp3s. Of course they were crap and mainly in RealOne player, but it made me feel big :p
 
Hi.
Google is my all time favorite search engine now.
But a few years ago I used to use "Ask Jeeves" does any one remember it?
What a rubbish engine that was,the ammount of errors in it was stunning.
I think it`s now called "Ask" I`ve not used it and I really don`t want to.

google. it is on the default search bar of firefox at the top right, and i always use that. i have drop-down option that allows me to search "images.google.com" directly... pretty useful for noob web designers like me ^_^
