Happy 2023! This month\u2019s tip is a search engine I recently discovered that includes quite a bit of customization for your own needs and preferences: You.com<\/strong><\/a>. The service has over 150 “apps” that you can thumbs-up, thumbs-down, and even pin to ensure you’re getting the results you need. They have numerous, custom-made search tools available<\/a> and you can even create your own<\/a>. Mobile apps are available, and you can use the service with or without an account (although, the real customizations require an account.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My favorite feature is YouChat<\/a>, which is an AI-powered chatbot designed to provide users with an automated, conversational experience when searching for information. Many times, I\u2019ll start with YouChat then switch to the regular results, if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you using You.com or other search engines that readers may not be as familiar with? Please share in the comments below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
