How do you know if your question has been asked already?

It used to come up when you’d ask the question, but it doesn’t any longer.

You can always google it, since the search doesn’t work too well. I just google “fluther _____” and see what comes up.

To me, if a similar question was asked a year or more ago, I will ask it anew, because I figure there are new Jellies here and maybe you can get some new perspective.

Thank you @jca2 yeah, I’m one of those new ones. :)

@jca2 it still comes up to me. It’s just that your wording has to be really specific to match the old questions.

Or maybe search under topics, see if something similar has ever been posted. For example if you ask a Q about jogging or beach combing, look under exercise or beaches, if topics if topics that type come up. Worth a shot anyway.

It hasn’t been lately. Now there is probably 2 million questions asking the same thing.
