I have nothing other to say than:

THE GUY IN MY C++ CLASS IS AN IGNORANT DOOFUS!

Good day.

Yo, step off my userpic man ;-)

I can usually find what I'm looking for if I know what it's called. if not, it will take me a bit longer. However, there are some things that you can't find on the internet. Google still turns up no hits for my favorite search keyword.

*is curious*

I can't tell you, because then I'd break it. :D

You didn't include my favorite search method: Call a GF and describe what I want, then 15 seconds later click on the email she just sent me that has the url I *might* have found after several hours of frustration.

But then, I suppose other people might not need to do that. *sigh* I am the World's Worst Websearcher.

Ah. "Have a professional conduct a search for you."

...I do that for my roommatesister.

I selected both "I usually find what I am looking for on the first search I run." and "I usually run several searches to get the exact results I want.", because it depends on whether I am searching for a common or obscure type of information. Like, if I'm trying to find a specific folktale, joke or recipe, it'll take me a few searches, while if I'm just looking for some piece of encyclopedic data on a more general topic, one search will usually do it.
