I hate Google. Hate, hate, HATE Google. I just deleted my gmail address, I know use only iCloud and yahoo for emails. Is there anything better than Google for searches out there?

I have started using Bing because last year my company blocked Google. Now that Google is unblocked, I have just grown accustomed to Bing and I really like it.

Although I no longer have a Google account, I continue to use its search engine. It's still the standard in regard to searches, in my opinion, like Hotbot, webcrawler and Alta Vista were back in the day....:)

I still mostly use Google, it's hard to break the habit and get away from the familiar look & feel. I try to use DuckduckGo more though, for porn Bing all the way. :tongue:

I wish I could stay away from Google, but it is the best. I try to stay on DuckDuckGo, but I find myself switching back to find what I'm looking for. The same with Bing. I switch back to Google, then forget to go back to DuckDuckGo.

My primary search engine is Google.... I have checked out Bing and duckduckgo but I always find myself going back to Google. To me, Google "Just works." Im not a big Bing fan... I may try it again someday. Even though I like using Google as my main search engine, I stay away from Chrome.... I just find it to evasive .

Mainly Google here for me since it syncs across all my devices and mac. But Bing, in the limited times I've used it, hasn't been that bad.

Chrome is Google. But it's not a search engine. It's a browser. I get 'em mixed up sometimes too! :) And did you mean "invasive" instead of "evasive"? Google does seem invasive, not just with their Chrome, but in everything they do. But their search engine just works the best of them all. Darn it! :D
