Using SF's lead, DuckDuckGo is now my default search engine. However, I can say with certainty it doesn't give the depth of results that Google can. If needed, it can always be accessed. I'm trying to get away from Google. While handy, it seems to be getting a little...creepy. It gives me ad popups for things that I swear I've never searched for but was thinking about. No, I don't think it can read my mind, but it seems to be building quite the algorithm of my preferences. That's a little too Big Brotherish for me.

Yeah the search results aren't quite up to par but I gladly live with it.
