Hey I didn't know Google had a Colombian version! It's at http://www.google.com.co/ OK, I guess I'm just dumb :) Do people actually use it or is there a better local search engine?

Robert Jorge says on Oct 13, 2006, 16:21: Ya, my Google automatically defaults to the Colombian version here in Colombia. I haven't figured out how to make it use the US version here. I type in www.google.com, but then it goes straight to www.google.com.co. Not a big deal though. "You can not take the barrio out of the girl you really can't." Oneforamillion 0 funny, 0 helpful. |
