Ask.com Receives Huge Overhaul

TechCrunch was the first to report that popular search engine Ask.com would be re-launched, and it has now happened. The updated site looks fresher, but I haven’t used it in the past enough to know if the search results have improved at all.

At the core of the changes is a move towards simplicity, though, which may count for more than the other changes. There is a significantly less cluttered home page with lots of white space.

Although simple, a great new feature is the selection of different backgrounds to use for the main page. Simple search engines do well, for obvious reasons, but the new Ask.com keeps simplicity in mind while having a modern feel. If you are in search of a replacement for your current search engine, give it a look.
