I hate google, it's the most overrated thing on the internet. Alltheweb.com is by far superior, as is the yahoo search engine. I think what I hate most though is when people use google as a verb... as in saying something like "i googled my name today and there were 32 hits"

you are 100% right. i hate it. It's even in Movies now! i think it started with Hitch when will smith talked about googling someone. ever since then its been the "cool" thing to say. "go ahead and google someone" i dont know if you saw the top 10 words of the year at like dictionary.com. google was #2 looked up. it's so annoying.

Like it or not, Google is part of the www. The Google crawler favors web pages by content keywords, while the Yahoo! crawler tends to favor web pages by title keywords. Alltheweb uses Yahoo!'s crawler results. Services like dogpile.com fetch search results from several "search engines" (e.g., Google, Yahoo!, MSN, and Ask) and present them...

Take yer pick

I googled mine and got 154000 hits. I googled a friends and got over 2 mil. Perhaps from a historical or cultural point of view your name is just not involved. Google is the best serch engine going period. I have never found anything on Yahoo that I couldn't find on Google. Do you have a sample of such comparisons?

Hate me. Google wins, you loose.

Take the walk of shame.

I'm okay with google being a verb.
"Coke," on the other hand, is not the name for every carbonated beverage and to use it in that way takes your IQ down at least 30-35 points.

I'm ADHD and I have an excuse for going from one topic to another.

google is a lean, mean searching machine...there's absolutely nothing to complain about the nice simple home page...yahoo used to be like that once upon a time....ah the glory days of Web 0.9
