Are people here avoiding using Google? - PeterB - 02-12-2006
With the current going-ons? Anyone using either Scroogle or Clusty?
I'm not thrilled with seeing that they are showing my supposedly anonymous yahoo.com account, whenever I do a Google search...

I thought this was going to be about peoples inability to do simple research themselves

How is your non-use of Google going to keep your supposedly anonymous stuff off the net?
The net is a VERY public place and any and all actions can be found if someone wants to bad enough.

I am not avoiding it, but would like to. They are not a good corporate net citizen, IMO.

I live on Google for work purposes.

They may not be entirely "not evil" but keep in mind that Google is the only major search engine that *didn't* instantly roll over and give the fed their entire database.

Who else you gonna use? Yahoo!
Not if you're a Chinese dissident.

Effin, besides Scroogle and Clusty, there are also web anonymizers...

I also rely on Google for my work. Bangman, what kind of work do you do?
