“Dino. Short for dinosaur? Remember to ask Jeeves.”
I see a lot of memes like and…
Am I just lucky or something? What the heck is wrong with my brethren xennials that yall are falling apart already?
Where yall getting meds at?
I don’t have back pain but my knees hurt from just existing (yes I move them, no it doesn’t help).
i’ve been looking at my baclofen all day trying to decide when to take it. i decided on 5 hours before bed.
Ah yes, the young whippersnapper Ask Jeeves!
Any reason to switch to this snazzy new service over Webcrawler?
You always remember your first…
The oldest search engine I could specifically remember using was Hotbot, but it debuted in 1996 and I’d been online for 2 years at that point. I don’t remember what I used before it.
Webcrawler and yahoo! are the earliest I recall using.
I remember using Yahoo!, so that’d be it.
Lycos was a big deal for a while, and apparently debuted in 1994. They had a dog and everything. Altavista was certainly a thing for some time as well.
Webcrawler edged out Lycos to be the oldest by about a month.
Good call, I’d forgotten about Lycos.
Not me, as I’m sitting in med with a heating pad on my lower back.
Back, ankle, knee, elbow and neck pain!
Thanks for the reminder, my knees are a bit swollen alright.
More than any other search engine of its time, what people entered into Ask Jeeves is probably more similar to how people search the web today. Remember, AOL was still using keywords.
Damn kids just have no respect these days!
Hypertension for me, but, yeah.
Stop abusing meds. Do some exercise instead.
How else am I meant to visually distinguish my Jenkins VM from my other VMs?
I actually never used it back then for some reason. I moved straight from Altavista to Google.
