    Default Search Engine of Choice

    Whenever I need information, I either go to Yahoo or to Google. Specially with the Google toolbar neatly installed and accessible, it becomes quicker to search for anything. Search results are often satisfactory and if I don't find it in Google, I go to Yahoo, or vice versa. My friend introduced me to AskJeeves (it has been renamed, I think), which I rarely use. As for MSN, I don't really use it, unless I just logged out of my hotmail account and the homepage gets back to MSN.

    Yahoo is my least favorite as I don't feel their results are good. I like G & MSN.
    Money Magazine says that Orland Park real estate is one of the best places to live in the U.S. Check out Homer Glen homes if you're interested in living in the newest Chicago suburb. Next door, Lemont homes are the priciest in the southwest suburbs and have held their value, even appreciating while prices in other areas have gone down.

    I go Google. I'm so used to typing the word Google now that no other SE comes to mind.

    Google.

    If you're a power searcher (i.e., use in-depth, multiple-word searches) nothing compares, IMO.

    Hey, I just looked at Ask.com and I am number one for "austin real estate" and "austin homes". So I was going to say Google... but clearly Ask.com is kicking their butts in relevant search results. I am going to have to say that I only use Ask.com at this point. It is the most accurate search engine I have ever seen!

    As much as it pains me to say, I personally use Google (more out of habit/laziness than anything else).


    I like the concept behind Dogpile - just wish it worked better than it does.
