I use Google, but my close second would be Duck duck go, mostly because of it's fast wikipedia searching and clean interface, but google is more convenient. Wanted to know which the bombers prefer now that Bing is now gaining traction and small guys are understanding simple search.

Google.

This thread made me look for some of the old search engines I used to use. I was shocked to find out Lycos is still a thing, even more shocking is that they still have Tripod!

Google. This is my first time hearing about Knowledge Graph. What I just read on the Google blog made it seem awesome.

I use this indie search engine called Google. Not sure if you guys have heard of it. It's pretty neat.

I don't like the design, but I use Bing because the rewards program nets me free Microsoft points. Low and cheap, I know, but I'm broke, so fuck off.

I'm not sure about the other ones, but I'd like to think Google and Wikipedia are two different things. I wouldn't put Wikipedia on here, it's not necessarily that kind of search engine.

@Bourbon_Warrior: http://www.discoverbing.com/rewards/web

They basically pay you to use Bing. Like, you get 1 point for every 2 searches and when you get to 500 points you can redeem them for 400 Xbox marketplace points or a $5 Amazon giftcard.

@Bourbon_Warrior: They limit me to 20 searches per day + there is usually some random thing worth 3 points. On Mother's Day there was a "click this link" kind of thing that showed search results for Mother's Day stuff, but they do something like that every day. So you should be able to get 13 points per day. They have to be different searches too, so just typing X and hitting refresh won't work, but I usually do "a" then "aa" then "aaa" and-so-on until I get my max for the day.

I used to be able to do 30 searches per day but I got lowered for some reason. I think my wife used to be able to do 12 and got lowered to 10 too. I don't know how they decide the number of allowable searches. There's a whole thread about it on cheapassgamer.

I guess if you wanted to you could just make lots of LIVE accounts. They just email you the codes when you redeem your points.

I run Chrome so it's Google all the way. The omnibox is just so convenient!

DuckDuckGo because I somewhat value my privacy.
