I don't use Google at all anymore, not just because they are despotic, but also because their search engine keeps giving the same results every time I use it. I like variety in what I find, so I use a variety of search tools, especially Yahoo, Live.com, Clusty, Exalead, Mamma.com, Gigablast, etc. Also, does not have a complete index; I often find stuff on other search engines that Google seems to miss, or else is buried deep within the search findings. I hate paging through search results, so I use other search engines to find what I need. Same here.

I rarely use Google now, due to their evilness and despotic ways.
