    Google is pretty much my only SE. I do use Yahoo from time to time but their results aren't all that great IMHO.

    TBH, the only reason I ever go to yahoo is to check links back to a site with the
    linkdomain:site.com
    command
    which I know is out of date, but it's what I've typed in for years so it's a hard habit to break :D

    Google, definitely. It is weird though, how on a place like the internet one search engine could be so extremely dominant. I mean, the only place in the world where information and choice are half-way free... Weird.

    Me is into Google too. I hate that Google is a bit of a Big Brother, but let's be honest, most stuff is great!

    I dont think many people use anything other than google. But I used to use a script I have somewhere that queries every major engine at once and adds a button box at top where you can click which engine you want to see results from..I need to find that LOL

    Agreed- although other search engines can be mediocre, I always go with Google, because it brings up the most relevant results. It's definitely the most accurate out there.

    duckduckgo, bing & google

    I only use google with Firefox to ensure full privacy. Add-ons and greasemonkey scripts allow me to do this.

    Definitely Google for all my personal searches, although I check where my own site falls in Yahoo and Bing regularly as well, Frankly, I think some of Yahoo's content is pretty nice like their movie section.
