  • What are the most commonly found problem mainly in the engine for begginers
    It is -- just called ask.com now ... Forgot about it for years until a co-worker made a joke about it recently and I looked it up... - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • I cannot live without ChatGPT anymore
    With ordinary search engines we were never able to ask for complex ideas or answers, why ask.com failed. Then we came up with an alternative solution and that would be to access information from individuals over the internet, hence websites such as Reddit and Twitter got formed. Now all this data that we gathered and each written with a different individual, which will cause each piece of information be structured... - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Google declares a ‘Code Red’ to build a rival for ChatGPT
    The fact that google.com isn't already a ChatGPT should be scary. Remember when ask.com was meant to be a question search engine? :). - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Is there a sub about ask.com?
    This seems to be the description of te sub, where do I go for https://www.ask.com? - Source: Reddit / 6 months ago
  • Biden is the only President in our country’s history who has threatened American civilians with military force on American soil.
    I have ben talking about how the internet sucks and completely changed at least for 6 years . 20 years ago you could search any question and get real fucking answers. NOW... You get BS that does NOT even come close to answering question and you get ads that have nothing to do with question just a keyword that was in the question. I sometimes put the same question in duck duck go , then google, ask.com. The whole... - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • high end pc underperforming
    I wonder how good it is, seeing as a lot of these bad guys are fully legal, e.g. ask.com or mywebsearch! - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • Courtesy of season 6, episode 10, we know that ...
    ... The Gene Nebraska stuff takes place in 2010, but it turns out that ask jeeves became ask.com in 2005. And disappointingly, if you search for "con man albuquerque" there, you don't get jack squat cobbler. :(. - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • Albuquerque con man. Upvote this post so this image is the top image result on Ask Jeeves for “Albuquerque con man”
    Indeed, it existed as ask.com, but the butler and the name "Jeeves" were gone by 2006. - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • Better Call Saul S06E12 - "Waterworks" - Post-Episode Discussion Thread
    You can still type askjeeves.com into your browser and be redirected to ask.com. If this is Marian's first laptop, maybe it doesn't jive that she'd know about an outdated search engine, but maybe she remembered Ask Jeeves from the 90's when ubiquitous PC's were newfangled. - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • Con man, Albuquerque
    Except, ironically, if you search on google you'll find Saul, but if you search on Ask Jeeves (ask.com), you won't at this time. - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • big as day
    A similar search at ask.com is less satisfying. - Source: Reddit / 7 months ago
  • Is search to search arbitrage allowed on Google Ads?
    Websites like ask.com and info.com are running Google search ads that take users to more search results, which seems like it falls under this description. The first 4 or 5 results are advertisements on EVERY SINGLE keyword you search (you can enter a query of a bunch of random letters and there's 4 or 5 ads). But they're allowed to do it. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • Reddit users are by far the most intelligent when compared to other social media platforms
    Why? Because regular old websites are full of trash and use money to become top web results. Other social media platforms don't have a space to answer questions and even sites like ask.com are full of incorrect answers and stranger questions. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • Why is it that it seems like in the last couple of months it seems like every 5th person I speak to on the internet is being toxic idiot?
    That's good to know about Quora though. I've never looked into it and thought it was just a website for asking questions like ask.com or stack exchange. - Source: Reddit / 8 months ago
  • Internet Explorer was once synonymous with the Internet, but today it’s gone for
    I knew that ask.com was Ask Jeeves but that is all I knew. - Source: Reddit / 9 months ago
  • Abortions past 30 weeks
    There's other search engines too, like ask.com Or any of these other ones if he wants to do the research. Lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_search_engines. - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago
  • Next and SEO
    However as the other comment suggests - other search engines do exist and for a complete seo "round-up" you still have to cater to some engines that do not render pages - yahoo, and duckduckgo are the notable ones as they both use their own spiders that aren't googlebot or bingbot based. (ask.com uses googlebot as an intermediary). - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago
  • [Game Thread] Transaction Frenzy #7: THE FRENZY HAS BEGUN
    I use ask.com and he's the first result. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago
  • Please help. My cat isn't eating much at all, but the vet can't find anything medically wrong with her.
    If you want a 2nd opinion, you can try the vets on ask.com. They'll probably give you a week free trial so you won't have to pay anything. - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
