DuckDuckGo really is good enough to use on a daily basis now. One big gripe I still have however, is that there seems to be no way to filter by time. I still have to go to google if I want to find a news article or topic which is recent, or within a certain period.

This is a popular request and one we're working on. Admittedly we've been saying that for a while but it's getting close.

A really good filter ( for me anyhow ) would be 'prior to this [ week | month ]', since often I want to search for things from the period before they were news

Interesting idea - I hadn't thought of that. Duly noted.

It's interesting to me, seeing how many people are so deeply dissatisfied with the results. I switched a couple of years ago, and only had a very small (two-three week) period where I'd check back on the mighty GOOG, only to confirm that they didn't have any better results either.
Might it be due to the way I format my queries?
