    No need to. I don't use Google anymore because the way it searches. A9.com is a better option and sometimes gives result (useful as well) which are not in first 15 pages of google.

    There desktop toolbar is utterly slow. The built in kernel search engines are much faster. Google toolbar feels like playing doom 3 written in java and running of 286 machine.

    We slashdotters just seem to adore google like blind faith because we want to cram up about microsoft and drink linux everyday. Enemy of your enemy is your friend. Google knows it and it works well for them. Audience is stupid as always.
