I was so young when I first used it and remember being delighted by the idea of phrasing a search query as a question. Google came later.

Thank you for being a positive part of the web of my childhood.

Same, I started using the internet around 2007-ish and even then my sister and I were still convinced that you had to use Ask.com if you wanted to ask the internet a question. I have fond memories of that time.
