I actually really like that setup, but it seems a little slow, and unresponsive to some of the things I typed in there.

I don't know, maybe there isn't anything on the internet that would bring any hits from the word 'penis' :laugh:

Meh, typing in ATOT brings me to a search results page. That's one extra click! I think I'd still rather get lucky

:confused: I just checked it out. That thing doesn't even compare to the coolness of googlemaps. Honestly, shouldn't even be muttered in the same sentance

GMail might have some catching up to do but I still use it primarily because I get no spam emails on it. Their spam filter is very very good as far as I am concerned. And the clean look is so much better than Yahoo's but that is strictly a personal opinion.
