I don't know anybody who uses Ask on a day to day basis. It's always Google, so I wonder why Ask is still running (besides Dictionary, Thesaurus and all that).

Didn't that used to be like AskJeeves? I thought they were dead - they were never useful anyway. Hopefully the economy will get rid of the dead weight on the search front - google really does need a real competitor.
