Verdict

The Ask Jeeves Toolbar has plenty of specific search options for news, images, video and MP3/audio, and the toolbar lets you zoom Web pages in and out. But its too-big search box and annoying frames around search result pages wore on our nerves... Read Full Review.

Pros

  • Good set of searches specific to news, images, video and MP3/audio
  • Ability to zoom Web pages from 50 to 200 percent
  • Decent pop-up blocker

Cons

  • Large search box is difficult to shrink
  • Web pages get Ask Jeeves frames at the top when you click a search result

I wonder, who needs .asia domain? I cannot imagine, what would be useful for Microsoft.asia? Toyota.asia? Then let's register .europe (if .eu is too short). Or perhaps Microsoft.southamerica, Dell.australiaandnewzealand, Coca-Cola.africa... Sound funny? Then why not just use the global and country domains? Or perhaps it is time to drop the domains at all?
