Gone are the times when google was my own secret advantage. While others were stuck to the slow, ad-distractive, labourious and inaccurate search engines like yahoo, excite and alta vista, I was able to find anything with the quickness. I tried to keep it hidden, but obviously failed. About as often as I consider trying BeOS again, I think about finding another powerful yet obscure search engine. For now, I'll stick with google simply because it really is the coolest search engine *ever*.
http://www.google.com/help/features.html If you haven't tried or didn't know you should, check out the Calculator function. Why would you want to type 3 + 5 in a search engine for an answer to an easy question? I hope you don't. Why would you want to type in "3 pounds + 5 ounces in kilograms" for an answer? Because that's really cool. So is, "2003 in roman numerals" or better yet "MMIII in decimal". Bask in the goodness . . .
