To get rid of such a well known and used trademark is sheer stupidity. I have always used it in preference to any of the others because of the Jeeves connection. Whether I will continue to do so is now in doubt. I agree with Paula D.Ward. To get rid of such a well known and used trademark is sheer stupidity.

I liked the idea that there was some 'figure' connected to Ask.com. None of the other search engines have anything like Jeeves. I liked the idea because the idea of the "butler" knows everything - and the poses and other funny things that the system designers would do for him. I mean, Jeeves could have had sweatshirts, mugs, all kinds of paraphanalia! Please reconsider. I miss his figure and all he represented to the web-world. Why mess with a good thing?

We thought it was such a catchy name. We never used Google or others because ask jeeves was always there for us. We especially like the characters at different holidays. Too bad you changed the name....will still use it and good luck!! My wife and I told everyone about Ask Jeeves. We thought it was such a catchy name.
