    I use duck duck go but sometimes I just have to use google.

    Use same search terms etc and can’t get what I want.

      You should try DDG’s “bangs” then. They are shortcuts you can type to narrow your search or use another search engine from DDG’s interface.

      !gm Singapore will search for Singapore directly in Google Maps

      !w Singapore will search for the word in Wikipedia

      !g will search in Google, etc.

        Ohh I love that, I always have to resort to google maps to search specific things now I will try that.

        Thanks so much
