That's mostly my barrier for switching out of Google. Thanks for the tip, I always seem to forget that DDG can quickly push you back to Google when convenient.

The real fun part is when you set it as default engine for a browser. Then you can do things like !w to search just wikipedia's articles etc right in the url bar.
There is also startpage.com (!s(tartpage) in DDG) to give anonymized Google results. And also ixquick (!ix(quick), natch) for a meta-search (not sure exactly what engines they cover).
