Which search engine do you use the most?

I use Google because it's simple and without all the other unnecessary garbage such as Yahoo or MSN. Live.com (MSN) is almost the same as Google without all the unnecessary stuff, very simple but I am just use to google now

I have the Google toolbar. I'm used to it - I'm used to Google.

See, at first I thought you were kidding, but that was before I ran a search on "ChaCha": http://www.chacha.com/

While an interesting concept, and beautifully presented user-centric model, I find it annoying that search results are mixed together with paid sponsored placements. At least Google separates ads from natural results.

It almost looks like a search engine powered by the Google API. I may be wrong though.

I google all the time. MSN and YAHOO have too much fluff, and is sometimes hard to navigate

Hi,
My favorite one was Google.I will always prefer Google for all of my doubts.I think the results from Google are perfect and more informative.

And other than the search engine other services like Gmail,Gtalk also very good.

But sometimes rarely I will go with Yahoo or MSN search engines whether I am not satisfied with the google results...

I prefer Google over the other search engines for a few reasons. One it's not over crowded like a few people said, it might not have all the stuff that Yahoo! and MSN search do but at least it is simple and doesn't make it difficult on the eyes when searching because of the tiny text sizes. Also if you don't mind crowded area you can personalize your Google homepage which I do so that I can stay up to date with my news weather and many other things. I just say that Google is the best thing to happen to this world, or not depending on your opinion.
