A friend of .ine switched to them a few weeks ago and has been converted from a free trial to a paying customer.

Last week he remarked that one of the features he was really excited about with Kagi was the ability to downgrade the unhelpful sites (you know, yahoo answers, expert dot com and other junk like that) and promote sites that are helpful.

He found that, after hundreds of searches, he never really use that feature. He said Kagi just legotimately has better results and so he hasn't needed to use it.

It was a bittersweet realization in that he didn't use the feature he was **most** excited about and was what he was willing to **pay** for. On the other hand, he doesn't have the problem anymore, so it seems okay.
