One week without search - Wrap Up
It’s been a very interesting ride, doing this whole week without using any search engines of any kind. Many people took bets too see how long I would last. Mike McDonald said three, David Brown said 2, Carolyn Shelby wished me good luck, and Brian Mark didn’t think I’d miss it.

UPDATE
When I first reported on this test, I was offended by the spammy nature of the link. I’ve since re-taken the test and am happy to report that justsayhi removed the weirdo links. Now you can enjoy it, without being redirected to a dating site. I guess they paid attention. (see below)
