When you ask someone a question nowadays and they don’t know the answer, you almost always know what they’ll say -- “Just Google it.” With over 3.5 billion searches a day, Google’s typically your entry-point for anything you need to do on the web, so I’m not surprised you want to change your homepage to Google.
