    Ask.com is better than Bing and Yahoo combined.

    How many of you even knew about Ask.com? Yet it's there. I love this search engine. Second to Google, no questions about it.

    Why you think that ask.com is better than Google, Yahoo. I think you should have to expalin some points here. So that everybody know about it.

    They have a good domain name but i dont think they are better than yahoo or bing in the sense their search indexes are very simple

    Well, I'm familiar with almost of them but never try any except Google and thus, hard to judge or share any opinion!

    lol. Bloody annoying when it prompts to download their forsaken toolbar.

    Aren't you supposed to be in school? Reading class has already begun and you're late for it.

    You simply misunderstood mate. What you think OP meant by "Second to Google"?

    Ask.com is **** shit, no offense to anyone. And I would never use them even if they became the best search engine, simply because I hate their aggressive marketing of their damned toolbar

    The only two search engines I use are Google and Ask. That's all you need.

    As many times as I used it they never offered any toolbar to me...

    I am not here to promote Ask. I am just saying what I have observed over the last 2-3 years. I think the engine is a bit underestimated. That's all.
