    Which Search Engine do you use?

    Like This Thread!
    I've been searching for a good site for NHL records for the past 10 minutes, and then it hit me - when you do a search, what is usually the first search engine you rely on to find that precious information?

    I used to rely on YAHOO first and foremost, but recently it's always been GOOGLE. What about you?

    Google has to my favorite one, it has aloy more searches that Yahoo or Lycos have, plus on the Yahoo one, they charge for more advance searches and I don't think going with that is a good idea..

    Google. You can find anything on Google.

    Tim, what kind of records are you looking for?

    Google. Simple, yet I (almost) always find what I'm looking for.
    It recently dawned on me that my signature could be interpreted as being said by me. For the record, this was not the case. If the previous signature reduced your opinion of me, please increase your opinion. Thank you.

    I pretty much use Google all the time now, though occasionally I might use Yahoo! Still, Google's pretty reliable for your site-finding needs.

    Google. There is no need for any other search engine.
    Yup. It's a signature. Go away if you're expecting something interesting here.

    "Longest overtime game" was the one I was going for. But any of those stats that don't involve personal player stats would have been great; I know there was one Canadian sports site that had it about a year ago, but I couldn't find it. Oh well.

    Google mostly

    When I want instructions for a task I often "Ask Jeeves"

    I used to always go to Dogpile.com because I like the idea of a meta-search engine giving out various different results for the same query but I invariably found Google gave the best results anyway.

    I remember 10 years ago everyone seemed to use Webcrawler. Whatever happened there?

    Google, I don't think there's anything better than it.

    Googlisms, google fights, those are good.

    Creators of Clone High USA Google themselves every day...
    I was once called Patrick Star....a looooooong time ago.........then I needed a break.


    I'd be happy if ANYONE remembered me!

    I never used anything other than AOL search, possibly due to not knowing where to start. That is yet another sign that I am not good with computers.

    I'm a Google gal. It's record with me is pretty dang great, on average I've always been able to find what I need via Google. I used to checked out Dogpile a lot, but not so much anymore. Only as a last resort do I check out AOL or Yahoo.

    I alternate between Yahoo, Google and Altavista for regular searches.

    For Law or News related topics, I rely on Lexis and Westlaw.

    I believe they were talking about hockey. But you are correct regarding baseball...I wonder what the major league record is.
