Default Which search engines do you use?

Maybe this is a silly question because everyone uses Google, but with Bing now out, I was wondering which search engines you use. Put a check next to all the search engines you use regularly.

Mainly google, but I recently read an article about Google anonymizes IP addresses on their search logs after 9 months, while Yahoo does it after 90 days. I wonder if Google knows too much about me, with gmail and searches *dons tinfoil hat*

Of course Google is my default and most used but Bing is growing on me. Their maps are actually better than Google maps and the bird's eye view is fantastic. And from Microsoft no less...who'da thunk it?
