I've set it as default on Chrome. Maybe google is better - I'll get more python libraries and less news stories about sheep (or Darwin laureates) getting swallowed by pythons, but I can live with that. Besides, I'm pretty good at typing "google" if I need it.

You can just add !g to the end (or beg) of your search and it will take you right there.

Actually, this is super handy! When I know I want the wikipedia article I just add !w at the end.

Ditto for youtube (!yt) etc etc

fyi, you can also use !v to search youtube via ddg ('v' for video)
