Does anyone remember?

Does anyone remember the name of that search engine, where you would go into a chatroom with someone who worked for the site, and ask them for search results?

I had nostalgic feelings today about all the random copy and paste conversations we used to stick up on here a few years ago.

aaaaah, good times.

was much more accurate , tho slower.

google, yuhoo, and bingo...faster at finding all sorts of shit... you weren't looking for.

Yahoo and Bing blow, but if you can't get google to give you the results you need, it's user error. Google is the shit.

Oh Scrubby, at least your memory still exists and your domin functions now more as a shrine than a usable search engine.
