Looking for Answers

Remember when we all thought that AskJeeves.com was a search engine provided answers to our questions, as if it was our personal butler? Those were simpler times. We all swore we would never be fooled again by search engine ad campaigns that over promise and under deliver.

Then came Bing.com, the "Decision Engine". I tried it and was thoroughly unimpressed. All of its features had the "Oh, this is like GoogleMaps" vibe and "Is that a decision helper or another set of pay-per-click ads?" feel.

Google is great, but they have some weaknesses its intuitive search features. Take a look at what Google presumes you will ask:

WHY

HOW

WHO

WHAT

WHEN


WHERE
