I received my first search engine referrals from Ask Jeeves today, and it took me back to 1999, when I tried to use this “natural question”-based search engine for a month before giving up in frustration. (And point of fact, someone showed me Google and it was love at first site, and I never turned back.)
To wit, one of the two queries posed that brought a user to my site was for “where can i type in words and hear them in japanese”. Through the magic of Ask Jeeve’s algorithms, somehow this site comes up first on the subsequent page of results for this query. Needless to say, you will find no answers to such a question herein. Gomen’nasai.
