I've used Yahoo! as long as I can remember, and back in those early days of web searches, just about everybody else used it, too. Lately, I've been surprised to hear internet newbies saying things like "just look it up on Google" and "just Google it." I've got to say, I don't know where everybody found out about this search engine or why it's so possible, but the results of this new poll seem to agree that the days of Yahoo! are dead and the reign of Google has begun. I am still a proud user of Yahoo!. I like the fact that the web site is so much more than just a search engine. You can do almost anything at Yahoo!, yet it remains unintrusive. I always find what I want here, so I still can't figure out what the big deal about Google is.

Anybody care to enlighten me?
