Do people not know how to search on the internet?

Question

Why are so many people asking questions that can be found by typing in the subject in that yahoo search bar. It's much more reliable then asking strangers and is faster. Like asking what a hoagie is, or who bill gates is, or what the side effects of their pills are. Why not just type "bill gates" in the search bar?

Answer 1

Maybe bcuz they've already done that and wanna try to get different opinnons from different people. yeah the comments u left on my questions were kinda rude...people just wanna hear what other people hafta think and maybe they can get a better answer then they did on the internet...searchin on wikipedia or w/e isnt always the best source

Answer 2

Actually you're 100% correct.  It's a good question to ask.  Some of these questions are ridiculous (why is the ocean blue).  Just goes to show how the intelligence level of our society is plumetting off the charts.

Answer 3

I've been wondering that myself...I suppose they're lazy.  This way other people do the work, even if it's unreliable...I guess some people think it's easier than sifting through different websites' information.  Too much for them to process, perhaps?
