How do you search?

http://www.engadget.com/2015/05/06/google-searches-more-common-on-smartphones/
I notice none mentioned that phones have good voice search. Just now I was cooking some red beets. My phone was in my pocket so I asked Siri how long beets stay in a pressure cooker. Easy, fast and correct results.

Anyone else have dramatically changed search habits with Siri/Cortana/Google Voice?

 

No, i still prefer traditional Google. But it's a neat feature. I just prefer the larger screen with more space to read, less squinting.

 

No Google for me.
The girlfriend knows everything... rolleyes

 

It depends on where I am and what I'm doing. If I'm already using the computer, then I Google search on it. If I'm away from the computer, then I use my phone. Either way, it's a Google search. I've had horrific luck with the voice search on phones... not sure if it's how I talk or the fact that I'm usually surrounded by noise, but my results are rarely helpful.

The last two weeks I've been on my phone exclusively since my laptop died, but it's not my preferred method. I do prefer searching on a computer, mostly because I'm a 90wpm touch typer and I hate typing with my thumbs.

 

Siri needs a new command:
"show results on My Computer"

 

I use Google most of the time to search. I think I speak very good English with a slight Southern accent and Siri does not understand me 90% of the time. If I Sink my phone with my car and ask it to "call so and so" I always get "Sorry I did not understand you", then it precedes to give me three options of people to call that sound nothing like what I was saying! Hate to think where it would send me if I was asking for directions. LOL I might need to learn another language to try.

 

Thanks for the input, I assumed our family experience was common.
Our family has no trouble with voice commands. Wifey occasionally puts a "R" in wash and other strange pronunciations from her time as Dallas Cowboy cheerleader and Siri cannot understand. But she remembers her "California accent" and all is well.

Looks like computer voice control is still a ways off for many of us.
