Why I use Google for searching

+MakeUseOf posted a question earlier today, about which search engine you use, Google or Bing. 
I wanted the correct spelling for one of the Dr Who enemy's  The  Raxacoricofallapatorius. As soon as you start typing the request, Bing quickly gives up, Google on the other hand goes all the way with many suggestions.
The end result. I'm still using Google for my search needs.

Another reason to read a book.

"Everyone knows that curling up with a good novel is relaxing but what if reading can do more than just boost your mood? Experts believe reading can transform lives, helping people deal with a variety of psychological and emotional problems, from stress and anxiety to grief and depression."

First reviews are starting to trickle in. The movie is looking good. But the 48 fps seems to take some getting used to.

A few people in my circles have bean posting a photo of an old motorcycle with a track instead of wheels.
Judging by the age of the web page below the concept didn't work.
If you Google "Hyanide", you get a few more photos of continuous track bikes, but none in use.

Catherine Cincotta, 33, from Melbourne, runs hair accessory firm Dazzle Strands, which has about 4000 likes on Facebook.
"I was getting at least 800 to 1000 post views and then July hit and then all of a sudden it started going progressively down so I was starting to see 300, 200 and now it's at about 90 on average," she said.
"I find this to be underhanded ... all of a sudden the posts are being suppressed and you're getting bombarded with requests to advertise with them."
