Why do people come on here and ask questions

[Francis Asis]

that a quick google would give the answer to?

I'm far too drunk to google! I just got a new job :c)

[lardhelmet]

Well done China! Good for you!

[NoMercy]

So, me old China, what's this new job then? :-)

[janzman]

If your not sure how to ask a research question of google then its easier to ask AB and let someone else do the research for you.There is an exact way to initiate a query, then to cross reference it time and time again using different research tools.In pre-internet days this was done by encylopedia,dictionary,thesaurus....now its just google,or whichever search engine, but you still must know how to phrase your questions to get the answers that you want.

Don't bother asking her questions right now... she's wasted lol... she's just downed a bottle of Champers... we are going out for an Indian now ;-p

[lardhelmet]

Sorry janz - what has this got to do with China's new job?

[NoMercy]

Oh you lucky buggers.... Champers and Indian - my favourite combo !

Have a great night. x

[janzman]

Absolutely buuger all lardhelmet,but it might have to do with the original post.Great for china all the best with the new job

[middkazsam]

Because google does not interact with you or give its views
I like a little human to human contact once in a while even if it is typed conversation

[NoMercy]

And Google doesn't do irony...

[janzman]

What I dont get are the folk over on quizzes & puzzles/crosswords who simply ask for the answers without doing any kind of 'googling' first,I mean what is the point of opening your newspaper,magazine at the crossword page and then ask someone else to complete the puzzle for you.What kind of satisfaction would you have if you 'finished' crosswords like that.

[KaiHallarn111]

Janzman - maybe they already have googled it and can't find anything.

[janzman]

Quite so Kaih but I refer to my previous that maybe they dont know how to 'ask the question'in the first place.

Thanks all who congratulated me... Cheeky as he is, snags is quite right about my present condition... I had a rogan and rice and potatoes! :c)

I'm going to work in child protection as a PA there.
