Firefox played a big part in this: just typing "wp "; it's never been so easy. However, I also use Google a lot, but that's because I'm too lazy to type in the TLD (e.g. I type "last" instead of "last.fm"). Btw, there is already something like Wikiasari from Jimbo Wales: Wikiseek. http://www.wikiseek.com/ The last two years or so I’ve been frequently forgetting to search Google, even if I could not find what I was looking for on Wikipedia.

However, I disagree with the approach oscillation. Today, I can distinguish the cases Google's searching is best fit for as well as those cases looking'em up in the Wiki is best much. See, I use Wikipedia to look up a certain fact. Quite often I'm pleased to find a complex explanation, new fact related to what I'm looking for. I must agree, WikiPedia makes sense.
