~10 years ago I would say “google it” often. But now I don’t think I say that at all, and would say “search for it” or similar.

Just me? Do you say, or hear others say, “google it” in $current_year? Is it different for techies and normies?

    Google is still the most used search engine, therefore the term “Google it” is still pretty widely used. Replacing it with a different search engine name would sound kinda odd. Would you want to “Bing [something]”? Or “Yahoo it”? Or “DuckDuckGo it”?

    Even then, who even uses the first two anymore?
