aye, to me they’re just a different interface to the same information publicly available via a search engine. for folks who haven’t spent the last 15 years honing their finding out technical information with a search engine craft i can see why they might be useful. but a search engine won’t sometimes mangle the output and provide an incorrect answer — it only provides a link to the raw data (webpage), rather than trying to create a paragraph of text about it. i’d rather have access to the raw data guaranteed unmangled. i’m fast enough using that method.
