You are right. Most people use google as main search engine and I'm one of them. I' from Russia and to addition to google I use russian search engine (yandex.ru) when searhing russian resources. It suits well for it.
ReplyDeletei agree with ivan.most of the internet user like use google to search anything.maybe it is because of it gives better search results than the others. but i'm not sure because i'm not the IT expert. by the way, in malaysia the most popular search engine use by the user is cari.com. most of the malaysia resources can be find here.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I am concerned,I like google as a kind of search engine. However, it is not the only way to search something. Besides it, I often use www.baidu.com and www.yahoo.com. Certainly, the latter,namely baidu and yahoo are often used by chinese.
ReplyDeleteIn sum, whatever you will use. It will be good only if it can satisfy your request.
i agree with randall...he's right..students must not limit their search in google juz because its popular..and he's right that teachers must help students know the specific site for a specific purpose..i'm from philippines, and i use yahoo.com more often than google.com., but as a student, i also search in other sites like wikipedia.com..it doesnt only show the popular links so i can say it is really a reliable site., like randall, i also use ask.com and some specific sites..
