I tried Kagi and it was convenient since there are no ads, making searches faster and less cluttered. It works well for finding information, but Google meets my needs for most searches. Overall, while Kagi has its strengths I decided to stick with Google for everyday use.
To get better at small talk, try to engage in more casual conversations with your friends about various topics outside of work. This practice can help you become more comfortable and natural in different social settings. Additionally, I recommend reading “The Fine Art of Small Talk: How to Start a Conversation, Keep It Going, Build Networking Skills—and Leave a Positive Impression!” by Debra Fine. This book offers practical advice on how to start and sustain engaging conversations, which can be very helpful in improving your talk skills.
