呵呵 老外们就喜欢恶搞，不过也很可爱！不过这次是官方博客也起来恶搞了....
之前我已经提及关于Google官方反对别人把Google当常用词来用，那么世界上还有这么一个搜索公司叫做：Ask.com, 是不是也不允许别人胡乱“Ask”呢？ :D
Q: What do Ask, Google, and Yahoo have in common?
A: They all have really good Web search. And they all have well-known brand names.
就在26日！Google官方博客中刚刚发布了那则Post之后，Ask官方博客也立即仿效发布了一则：You Do and/or May, In Fact, "Ask" (or "ask") .整体形式如同Google一样，使用了：Ask的用法和例句...
以下是摘录片段：
The "Rules" (loose as they may be)
* "Ask" does not mean "ask." Ask means "Web search"
and "search tools" and "smart" and "up-and-coming-growing-market-share-but-still-relatively-small-why-not-check-it-out."* You may ask Yahoo and ask Google.
* You may not "Ask" on Ask Yahoo or
Yahoo Answers, though you may "ask."* You may ask Ask, but you may also search with Ask. A full question like
"How
old is Madonna?" will bring her age directly on the results page, and a
keyword search for "Madonna
photos" will work just fine.* Regardless of gender, you may, of course
Ask Directions,
for example. You can also
Ask Blogs and
Feeds and other stuff.Usage
To understand our point-of-view on how to use the word "Ask," let's take a
look at some use cases.Usage: Ask as noun, referring to
Ask.com.Example: I went to Ask, and did an everyday keyword
search like I do on other engines, and now that I know I don't have to ask
on Ask.Usage: The upper-case "Ask" as verb, referring to a Web
search conducted on Ask.com.Example: I pulled up
Ask.com to Ask "pumpkin
pie recipes."Usage: The lower-case "ask" as verb, referring to posing
a question.Example: If I may be so bold as to ask, will you join me
in the Jacuzzi®?Questions?
Q: Can I Ask on Google?
A: No, no, and no. You are welcome to ask on Google,
however.Q: Can I ask on Ask?
A: You can ask on Ask.com,
but remember that you can also search on
Ask.com.Q: Do people Google on Ask?
A: Looking at our logs, people do seem to google on
Ask.com. They type in "google" and go to
Google. They also do this with Yahoo, eBay, Amazon etc. So you may find that
you Yahoo on Google, eBay on Yahoo, and even Amazon on Amazon (if you were
looking for books about the rainforest on that wonderful shopping site).
Just this morning I Microsoft'd on the
Ask.com Blog
Search. Felt good.More Fun with Verbs
The following examples are a bit more involved, but follow along to get the
Big Picture:Example: "I googled my date on Google. When we went out,
I asked him about the night in Cabo."Comments: Fine by Google, and fine by Ask. Though it
would be smart in this case to also Ask about your date on Ask, to be
thorough. And by Ask, we of course mean "search the Web with keywords on
Ask.com." For example, search "date name"
cabo t-shirt contest.Another example:
Example: "Timmy Asked on Ask for the link to
Ask Yahoo. Later that day he also tried
his question on Google Answers."Comments: Note that Timmy did the right thing here-he
used Ask.com to search the Web, and found
his link to Yahoo to ask a question in plain English. Here Timmy, Ask, and
Yahoo all benefited. Google will share in the fun too. Let's take a look.Example: "While asking on
Ask Yahoo, Timmy was referred to Google
in hopes of googling for more answers. There he googled, and all was well."Comments: What a wonderful time to be alive.
And a seasonal example to end with:
Halloween Example: "Looking for a swell Halloween
costume, Sergey went to Ask and Asked "Halloween
costume ideas" and received a Smart Answer at the top of the results
page." Good work, Sergey, and good luck with your Olympic swimmer costume!Remember, it's all there for the Asking.
所有内容，从词语的用法，规则，提问，以及更多作为动词的用法来说明“Ask”.... 呵呵 其实不说，大家都知道Ask怎么用，不过是为了恶搞一下Google~这次貌似有点冲动的行为而以！
