Aside from the main page being simple, there's very little in common.
IMO this looks much better than google's and is easier to use - I particularly like the feed listings when searching for blogs. :D

It's algorithm isn't quite as fine-tuned as Google's, but still can prove useful. I realized this when I went on it to look up "Digg City," the winner of the Digg API Contest. Nothing useful came up because Ask didn't really know the actual thing I was looking for was called "DiggCity."
However, it does do a much better job than Google at getting more information to the user, but so do a lot of other search engines. The difference is that Ask has been spending a TON of money on advertising.

Actually, conducting searches on Ask.com's site is MUCH better for me. Although 'the algorithm' seems to give me sometimes less important information, I feel that it gives me more than I need, but as much as I want. A very nice search tool, me thinks.
