google question for international surfers

[SmackDog]

When people outside the US use google, i.e. google.de, google.ca, etc., do you search the entire web? Or do you use the button to search for pages just within your country?

I was looking at this today and on every google search that I did using google.ca for example it gave me the option to search the entire web, or just search for pages from Canada.

I'm just wondering if people search for pages just within their own country or if they generally search the entire web?

Any thoughts?

I use google.ca and rarely use the search in canada button. I will only do that if i am looking for a non-online business.

It really depends on what I'm searching for.

If I'm looking for something local then I use the .co.uk local search otherwise I search the whole web.

same as Zilla. I use .co.uk and search the whole of the web except for local stuff
