   Keith F. Lynch to All   
   End of an era   
   14 Sep 25 19:32:25   
   
   From: kfl@KeithLynch.net   
      
   As of last Wednesday, Google search stopped working with the Lynx   
   browser.   
      
   I prefer to do my web searches with Lynx on Panix, since it's fast,   
   clean, ad-free, safe from malware, and anonymous.   
      
   Instead of typing "lynx google.com" each time, I had long since   
   aliased that to "go."   
      
   So since Google decided it no longer wants my business, I simply   
   changed that alias to instead point to "lynx duckduckgo.com."   
   That way I don't even have to relearn anything.   
      
   Google was nice while it lasted, but nothing lasts forever.
