Re: Can you live without Google

I have things I like about Google and I have somethings I like about Bing.

My SAI (Senior Army Instructor) or JROTC supervisor's son works at Google.

Re: Can you live without Google

I think one of the biggest reasons why I prefer Yahoo is, well, it was all there was when I joined the internet (that I was aware of) and have just used it for so long. Google just doesn't seem to do the job any better that I have noticed, but I still don't know why everyone abandoned Yahoo for Google as soon as it came out. But I didn't really hold a grudge against them until they bought out YouTube.

Re: Can you live without Google

What's bing?

And I can understand using something that you've used since you started out. In 2002 I got a LiveJournal and that's just what I've always used. I didn't get in on the myspace or facebook or anything. I don't need to cause I use LJ and always have and the others just aren't appealing, nor have I tried them. So that's a very acceptable and understandable reason for not using google, is cause you've always just used yahoo.

I prefer Google myself, but I also use all the other search engine when I cant find something with Google. Which is rare.

Miba  Bing is a decision engine from microsoft. It is really great. I love it.  Yeah they call it a decision engine instead of a search engine. depending on what you look for it narrows things extensively

Re: Can you live without Google

I used to have a LiveJournal way back when, but it's been long abandoned. I can never keep up with writing in journals once a day, or even every other day. I only use the journal that comes with my DeviantArt account every once in a while (mostly for rants, lawlz). Anyways I'm not a very interisting person. If I wrote in the thing every day nearly every entry would be  along the lines of "Well after classes today I studied for another 6 hours for my classes. Looked over my math stuff, my reading book, and did my writing homework. Then I played <insert name of game here> for 6 hours. Dinner was <insert food here>. Tomarrow I have writing class. I hope the teacher will like my essay!" Yeah, thats some real exciting stuff there.

And I'm uneasy to use FaceBook or MySpace because I don't want the people I went to high school with to find me.

Re: Can you live without Google

That's one of the biggest reasons I don't use places like Facebook. I don't want people like my mom snooping through my journal. I'm a big journal writer. Before I got married I used to write pages and pages every day. Now I only manage it two or three times a week. It's a good way to unwind, to sort things out in your head, to just let things out. It's like a friend you can tell anything without any fear of reaction. And one of my motivators is this: I would love to read a journal my grandma wrote when she was younger. And I love reading my mom's old journals from when I was first born and stuff. And I hope one day I have a child or grandchild who will sit down and read my little piece of history. When I think of it I try to include things like what I ate or wore, occasionally I say how much stuff is. I mostly just rant about work though.

You can customize your privacy settings so that pretty much nobody can find you.

Re: Can you live without Google

Oh, that's right, I forgot about that. Another friend just told me that a few weeks ago too.
