Remembering stuff like Yahoo! And Ask Jeeves, I wonder how Google came to be the company that became ubiquitous for and basically interchangeable with “online search”.
Back in the day I used other search engines but they became more and more cluttered with a lot of flashing lights and colours. I started to use Google almost exclusively thereafter because it was simple and clean.
This is the reason right here. On dial up, you could do 20 searches on Google in the time it took Yahoo to finally load and let you do a search.
Same way you’re making me feel tonight. /jk
