The ask jeeves that recently died is not the ask jeeves that people remember. It was sold to some other company ages ago that turned it into a google search that only returned weird, scammy results.

Wow … I think AskJeeves was the first major search engine I relied on when I first started going online. That and ‘Dogpile’. I remember a friend of ours bugging me to check out a thing called ‘Google’ at the time.

Apparently whoever wrote that headline isn’t on Lemmy, it was posted all over here the last few days
