I use Google like 3 times a week.

I've never used the Image Search.
I have no idea what Google Groups are...

It's just not worth paying for the amount I use.

I'd find a different search engine.

altavista 0wns and what he said ^^^

I've been using google since the beginning... I haven't collected any stats from my proxy server, but I'd guess I do at least 50 google queries a day -- half web, half groups.

Most of the programming problems in the world (and bad API documentation, bugs, etc.) have been solved and posted to google groups... why not use this great resource?

not only would i pay nothing for google, i would pay nothing for anything webage related. if you pay for webpage related services you are just encouraging it to happen more and more and soon every news page, review page, games page (already happening), forum, etc will all charge money. the internet is being taken over by companies who can care less about the internet, they just want money. the internet was fine before every dumb ass company came here. things were so much better in 1996 when i first came on. now its all ads, banners, popups, dumb ass pictures, animated gifs, and uselessly slow and buggy java/flash crap.
