With the ability to search thru newsgroups and images,
google definitely kicks all the other search engines ass.

Definitely Google

Alexa sucks - tested it with a simple query, results are 90%
irrelevant. Design is awfully homepage'ish (puke). And even
more - clicking on a search result shows you some 'details'
asshole! (yeah, i know about 'go directly' feature, but one
has to find it - it's fucking inconvenient).
And the pic on search result doesn't always show what it has
to.

Google, Google, Google.

I use Google a hundred times a day for a hundred reasons.
Alexa doesn't top Google.

Although it was cool to see ''Traffic Rankings''! Google.com
is #5 on there. Anyone know #1?
