Some Good News For Ask.com: Jeeves Makes Come Back

When Ask.com retired Jeeves, I was quite sad. The guy was a friendly web presence and he had the craziest answers to some of the funniest questions. But Jeeves retired, Ask.com essentially dissolved itself, and it looks like Jeeves is making a debut after playing around in the adult entertainment industry, as Barry reports at Search Engine Land.

Barry notes that if you go to askjeeves.com, it redirects to Ask.com but with the Jeeves character. On the other hand, if you just went directly to ask.com, Jeeves would no longer be seen.

It's about time Jeeves came back to us!
