I have seen a few posts around lately about Ask.com’s lame anti-Google marketing campaign. Although I do give them a small amount of credit for the fact that the taglines they are using are rather clever, I think resorting to this kind of cheap tactic is sad and unnecessary. I mean really, so your search engine isn’t as good and therefore can not generate as much traffic as Google, do you really need to blame it on them? If you run a marathon and someone finished 15 minutes ahead of you, do you complain to the judges that it’s not fair because they are a better runner than you are and you should get credit for trying?!?! I don’t think so. But hey, I get where you are coming from and that’s why I am proud to announce that Ask.com has just been voted Miss Congeniality 2007! Congrats Ask, without you, semi-attractive pre-pubescent Search Engine’s everywhere would have no one to look up to!
