March Computer Hope poll
« on: March 01, 2005, 12:46:45 PM »
For the month of March we thought we would run a poll again that we have not run in a few years. This month we would like your oppinion on what your favorite search engine is. Feel free to discuss in the forum why you like a particular search engine and if your favorite search engine is not listed feel free to post a link.
 
A complete listing of all the Computer Hope polls as well as last month’s poll can be found at (http://www.computerhope.com/polls.htm).
   
Which is your favorite search engine?

Ask Jeeves
Google
MSN
Yahoo
Other

For those of you who have not yet voted, voting can be done on our home page.

    If you don't know the answer, it isn't a dumb question.

    It's possible that the pages were still getting uploaded when you were trying it because I'm unable to duplciate your issue.

    You're just to fast.  ;D

    The only one I ever use is Google.  You can find everything you'd need via Google.  There's a small hint for those newbies out there.

    I am a Google lover! I use Google for EVERYTHING! I like how many results are displayed, and how accurate they are. Also, if Google (by some strange change), did NOT give me the results that I wanted, I use http://www.dogpile.com ... Although, I have not been there for a WHILE, becuase Google is SO accurate!  ;D

      Our web host moved over several gigs of raw statistics that caused issues with the forums and polls. Unfortunately this means that polls done over the last week were lost. We apologize for the issue and are trying to work out some type of solution with our web host to get this issue to not occur.

      Well, I did the following query on Yahoo: "rm files that begin with dash" and got this site (computer hope for a perfect answer) as first result. On google for same query this site was second result. Actually, nowadays for all my queries there's really not much difference -- they're both good.

      ;D
