New Search...


When you host your blog on Google, you get search by default. However, I'm in the process of de-Googling my life to see what it's like. I'm primarily moving over to the MSN Search engine.

What am I crazy???

No, I'm not crazy, I'm primarily moving because I like the MSN Desktop search, and MSN IE toolbar (available here) are *way* better than Google's in my oppinion. The MSN toobar gives IE Tabs, which is ok if you like tabs (I'm not a huge fan). But the plug ins are awesome. My favourites are:
I also changed my home page to MSN Search on all of my PCs. The final thing I have left to do is remove the Google Toolbar, however, the "Blog This!" link is too handy...

Oh yeah, and the point of this post. I've added MSN Search to this blog, which IMO does a better job at finding things, I searched with Google for "IMAP" this morning and didn't find anything until I added the MSN Search. Try it!

Oh, and it's good to use, our MVPs are using it!

Sean, I wondered how your de-Googling has worked out over five years. I’ve been de-Googling over February, especially after some of Google’s privacy gaffes.

I use Bing most of the time, I'm just always careful what I put online.

Thanks, Sean. I have Bing now as my default in Firefox.
