haha I know this looks like a boring subject but with Ask.com's more aggressive ad campaign I'm wondering if its really influencing other people's decision everytime they look for por-I mean research stuff.

From the commercial it looks like Ask has quite a few useful features, so the question is, has anyone been impressed enough to try Ask (and continue using it) or are you like me (you have "google.com" engraved into your mind)?

Whatever my browser uses. I don't care. I'd prefer Blackie, or Google, or sometimes even yahoo. ;)

I use google since Greasemonkey scripts exist for it. The one I like most is one that shows wikipedia articles for all your searches. A screenshot for a FIFA 08 search:

Hmmm, when I was looking for Romance of the 3 Kingdoms Anime, Google couldn't find it, but Dogpile did. :wink:

Google. It will fail you but with the right wording you'll find it anyways.
