<< I still use yahoo... :eek: >>



I did until they turned it pink, and then for a while afterwards until they started using popups. Now google all the way.

Yahoo! is merely a directory plus Google, so I didn't include in it the list. But anyways, this poll was obviously a waste of my time. :eek::(

Vespasian, yeah.. i voted for google since they're pretty much the same thing.. i really like the directory though. Google is nice, but i like the added things in yahoo.

I used to just use MSN Search but then they started all those stupid popups. Now I use Google and it turns out to be better than MSN.

Anyone use the Google toolbar? I tried a long time ago, but didn't like having that multi-colored GOOGLE in my browsers toolbar. I'm picky about things like that.

I used to be a die-hard metacrawler user.....but of course i switched over to google a few years ago

man, there's really no competition anymore! I've RARELY if ever not found what i'm looking for with a few keyword searches!

quotations and ampersands are your google search friend I might add !

Currently 43-1 Google.

I LOVE the Google Toolbar. It saves me many valuable milliseconds on my searches!

Google works because it is SIMPLE.

No flashy garbage. Search engines don't need to be the New York Times. All we want is a little box to type in our search words and off we go!

Well, if anyone ever wants to use a search engine other than Google, I would recommend WiseNut. WiseNut's interface is clean and simple, and its index is just as large as Google's. :)
