A cool $3 billion isn't bad for a little code.

BTW, what is another search engine out there? I've used Google for so long the only option I could think of was yahoo. What were some of the others: AltaVista, Northern Light, ???

The biggest problem with that is that Yahoo's search actually uses Google's technology, so when google goes down, so does Yahoo search!

Another problem is that the issue that was causing google problems, the proliferation of the mydoom virus, is also taking down other search engines... the whole time I couldn't access google, I couldn't access yahoo or lycos either!

askjeeves.com is another good one.

I just make up a website like www.ericiswickedawesomeandalltheladieslovehim.com and my browser pulls up a search engine to help find the site.

That's something that exists on your computer, I think; any domain name that comes up not found takes you to the search site.

You can always try booble.com. Me and my brother noticed the trends with all the google offspring and clones so we tried to find as many as we could thing of. We laughed our asses off at the logo for a good solid hour.

Yahoo stopped using Google a long time ago. It no longer says "powered by Google" on their searches.
