Which search engine do you use the most
Personally, I use google. It's the easiest, simplest, and most user-friendly. All the other pages just seem to have far too much clutter on them.
No, I don't need to read the news while searching for pictures of a nuclear bomb explosion. |
There are other search engines besides google?? http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsys...ons/emot-j.gif
post scriptum: try to search for "man with huge cock" loll |
I'm with you. Google for the win. Type it in, and click search. It can't get any simpler than that.

Google for me. It always has been and it always will be. <3 Such a simple and accessible interface.
Oh, and I lol'd at the picture, too. That's a pretty captivating cock, there. It even needs a leash! (Kinky, huh?) |
Google for me.
years ago there was one I used all the time called gohip.com, it would use yahoo, altavista and lycos at the same time. |
Google, simply because it was the first one I found and usually it's quite good. I use dogpile and alta-vista for music searches though.
|
Another for Google here. It has been, and will be the only search engine that I will ever use.
|
Google for me, as well, although I have tried using Clusty, a locally developed meta-seatch, from time to time. Still, I always end up going back to Google. It's just so conveniently simple it's hard to pass up.
|
|
In many cases, I just search Wiki via keyword. It's not wikiseek, but it's close. In those cases where I need an image, don't know exactly what I'm searching for, or know that Wiki won't have what I need, I turn to Google, my primary search engine.
|
Google. I don't consider things like Wiki or IMDB to be search engines, but maybe they are. BTJunkie...?
|
Google almost all of the time, dogpile the rest. I don't like some of the new things google are trying (or tried) though, such as that stupid change to the image search reults page where the domain, size and filetype etc are hidden until you hover over the image. That's plain stupid.
|
Google has a stranglehold on my search engine side. Sometimes I forget there are even alternatives.
|
Google. It's nice, simple and I don't need to know thing like the weather, just who died in some random state or stuff like that.
|
Google for most things, baidu.com for the rare occasion I need to look for Chinese language stuff.
|
Google all the time. :p
I have never needed anything else. |
Google, because it's clearly awesome. (I also use gmail. O_o) I used to use askjeeves in elementary school. I always thought it was cool to put my search in in the form of a question.
|
I used to use Yahoo!, but circumstances have forced me to make the swtich to Google. Let's face it, the search engine wars are over. Google has won and will soon own not only the Internet but us as well.
|
I intake a lot of news from international newspapers and radio, so, while AP blurbs aren't anywhere near the quality of "The Economist" or "Yomiuri Shimbun," it's nice to have breaking news available on Yahoo. I do like the results, too, and I have special bile for Google.
|
Google, but BEFORE google, way back in the mysts of 1997, Lycos.
This is the silliest thread in existance. you should ask 'what do you drink most?" and have a poll listing water, turpentine, sulfuric acid, bile, quicksilver, and fudge. |
Google. I rarely use Yahoo. I think back in 99/00 I used AOL Search, but wasn't that powered by Google?
|
Google, naturally. If its something that I know can't be found on google then I turn to more "specific" search engines.
|
Yahoo, primarily out of habit. I'm not entirely comfortable endorsing Google on any level, even though I've got the cookie anonymizer. I do turn to Google for image searches, though, since Yahoo doesn't seem to have anything comparable.
|
Google, default search engine on firefox, and it's quicker than the rest.
|
Google for me as well. I mean all I do is type what I'm looking for in the top right hand corner of my firefox broswer and off I go.
|
Google, of course. Even people that are completely inept with computers tend to use Google. The built in tab in firefox is also nice.
|
Google is the only search engine that I use. I always set any built-in taskbar search tool to use Google. I even gave Google Desktop a try for a while, but it didn't live up to my expectations.
|
I'm a Google man myself. Simple, fast and reliable. Very quick to type into the address bar too.
|
Google 'cause it has tons of functions and such.
|
I thought people use Google precisely because it is bare bone and functional by any accounts. Google all the way.
|
I actually used to use Altavista all the time, but then something switched and I became a Googler. It might have something to do with Firefox and the default engine, but the switch coincided more with me changing to my laptop from my grandma's old home computer. Go figure.
|
I stopped using Altavista years ago when they suddenly replaced their simple Google-esque start page with a total mess. Even now that they've gone back to basics, I'm stuck on Google out of habit.
|
To be truthful, it all depends on the browser I'm using.
If I'm running Internet Explorer, I typically use Yahoo since I also have a Yahoo email account in there. If I'm running Firefox, I use Google since my homepage is iGoogle and I check my RSS feeds through Google Reader anyway. |
Im a google person sporting the google toolbar.
|
Google. They own my search engine time and they own my e-mail.
|
I use both Yahoo and Google, but Google mostly.
In all actuality, I use LOTS of search engines, because some are usually on their period and not giving me what I want... lol. |
Definitely Google, it's the best and it's very fast. Since November last year I've been using Gmail as well, great e-mail client!
|
Kind of a pointless thread really since nearly everyone will say google however for alternatives
Altavista for when I want to be as specific as hell on their advanced search Wikipedia need I say more? Ask.com going through a rehash lately, like you can preview pages before you open them now, but it's more a gimmick then useful feature imo. It's one of those search engines that tends to search based on popular searches rather then useful ones, but for serious features it's a quick easy way to do some tasks such as currency converting. |
Ahahaha, 87 votes for Google and the rest have a maximum of 5.
Dog Pile. What the hell is Dog Pile? |
Dogpile searches multiple search engines if I remember correctly. It's good for audio searches.
As for what I use, Google. It's in the top right of Safari and it almost always gives me what I want. |
Dogpile was how I found GFF, actually. Which is why I don't use it anymore.

Another googler, but:
Dogpile - Prior to google. I loved the idea of searching every single engine and the little outfits that the dog would wear depending on what holiday it was. Now it feels like information overload, unpopular, and disorganized. Lycos/Altavista - When I first discovered the internet. I didn't know any better ;_; Ask - What a joke. Even when I was young, I didn't think that butler could fetch me results. Phrasing in the form a question was neat, but I never fell for it since even that was a hassle. |
Ok, this thread is quite silly when you consider that "google" has become a verb in the English language dictionary.
|
Which is too bad, given the fact that Google in unethical and farms out information.
|
If I dont use google, that means I betray my googlism
|
Google for me, too. It just... works.
I also use IMDB and Wikipedia if I'm looking for something specific, but do those count as search engines? Someone else already mentioned that, I think~ |
Google, default search engine on firefox.
|
Google FTW.
It's just more friendly. |
From the list, google.
But nowadays, searchkindly.org "What is Search Kindly? Search Kindly lets you donate money for free just by using Google from this page instead of any other. All of the money that we make through advertising is donated to charities that you select." :) |
Does this question even needed to be asked? :p
My taste in search engines have evolved throught the years. Way back when I got my first internet connection and the World Wide Web was young... 1995-1996 - Yahoo! 1996-1998 - Altavista 1997-1998 - Ask Jeeves 1997-present - Google. So yeah. Google. Used it ever since it was hosted on stanford.edu. |
I kinda like Yahoo. I always manage to find what I need with one search. Besides that, I like having major news right in front of me when I open my browser. Newspapers are so yesterday. :P
