I recently had to search for something similar to this:
march 12 2019 + 366 days
and DuckDuckGo gave me exactly what I wanted while Google gave me not-very-useful results.

What query did you do on google that didn't give you so good results?
I guess Google has figured out with its trillions(?) of queries how humans search and not how nerds search.
(Also interesting that you can infer that I'm on Ubuntu from my sharing of the search URL, though.)
I basically view it as a slightly more friendly/natural than traditional Mathematica interface.
