They call me the Seeker

For those of you who followed my advice and were using Blingo as a search engine (all zero of you, I believe), or those of you who might be considering the 'search engine==free goodies' angle, it looks like they've changed over to using Yahoo! Search, MicroSoft LiveSearch and Ask.Com resulting in a significantly less useful search for me. Unless this changes, which I don't see happening, I no longer recommend it.

Unless I go to Ask.com

I've only been half paying attention to, well, anything lately, but Blingo was sucking badly at some recent point (in terms of not loading), so I switched back to Google and hey presto, the results were better. I'd thought it was just a change in formatting, but no, they're dead to me now.
