When would you NOT use Google?

    Google is obviously a great search engine, and it's got a lot of free and useful tools. But as great as it is, there are times when you have to resort to other search engines and tools as well to maximise the results.

    Just in terms of search, I've always been going to google first for anything, but sometimes when I can't get the results I expected I also turn to yahoo, msn and other search engines.

    Is there any particular situation when you would NOT use google and resort to other tools?

    Well if I don't find it at google I give up :)
    Yahoo gives unrelated answers on my questions... so only google for me...
    MAYBE Live, just to support their site :)
