This is a cool search engine that uses and compares both Bing and Google.

Bing has nice background images, but the search engine itself sucks in my opinion.
Google all the way for me.

Bing is Microsoft's best effort yet, but they can't seem to help themselves skewing results in favor of themselves sometimes.

I see a lot of potential in bing. It can do a lot. Its still too early to compare a staple like google to bing IMO, but I still think it has potential to transform. Maybe thats why google is trying to launch google wave. Stay ahead as most search engines are into customizing user preference now.

I really like the bing commercials too.

But I must say, i'm a total google nerd. I google.

its interesting the contrast in results between the two seaech engines. One of my friends at university has a website he runs (it is a .com website) which when you type the two key words into google it is top of the list. Type the two exact same keywords into bing and the website is not even found on the first 5 pages.

I've never had any problem with google and have no intention of changing. Unless I hear something through word of mouth and go and have a look and like it, or google starts to let its game slip.

Snap!

it doesn't matter if it was the best search engine in the wordl. People use google because google has worked itself into every nook and cranny of people's lives. To switch search engines isn't just matter of changing search engines, it then becomes an issue of going out of ones way to use a different search engine. Why use Bing when Google is not only search, but email, maps, shopping, etc etc etc. And not only do they have maps, but they have the best most detailed maps. Not only to they have email, but they have the fastest email. And search is all integrated into all of those things as well. It's not just about search, it's people's whole online routine.
