This is a shocking story

First I was shocked that Ask Jeeves is still around, then by the fact that anyone would want to buy it, then by the ridiculous price tag of $1.85 billion. Not that I really keep up with these things, but I didn't realize anyone even used Ask Jeeves anymore (or ever come to think of it). Don't people pretty much just use Google and Yahoo! when they want to find something online? Anyone use Ask Jeeves, and if so for what?
