I find that I'm using STW to answer queries that Google offer too many answers to. For this I thank you.

I find STW gives the best answers when your question involves motoring, like "how do I get off my speeding ticket" or "How much can I drink and still drive safely". Always entertaining 😉

STW is best for "trusted opinion" over Google's "speculative facts" IMHO(pinion).

Yeah agreed. It's a very diverse place with a huge wealth of knowledge amongst a very large user base.

It's interesting how many subjects you search for in google and an STW thread about it is one of the first results anyway...

I think phiiiiiil that Google is clever like that and will present matches from regularly used sites before unvisited ones, but it's still brilliant here.

I've often wondered what this religion stuff is all about. I may post on here to see if anyone has an opinion.

heh, I'd not thought of it that way!

Obvious extension of this thread, what's your favourite question(s) ever asked here.

'Is there any such thing as a road legal hovercraft?'
'How do I get Sudocream off my cat?'

Its true. If I need to know a "fact" eg How many piano tuners in Chicago then I'll google it.

If I need a problem solving then I'll generally just ask it on here or google to see if its been asked on here before.

So yes this place is great

True, there's a great database of information and opinion here but I use google to search STW as the STW search hamsters suck.
