I see google like a toolbox. I don't use every tool in the box every time and sometimes I need to borrow one for a special job. I have my favorites that I like to use and I keep those handy.
My tool box is not all the same brand of tools and some are just quick get-me-bys but my main tools are high quality and dependable.
