Question Bing Versus Google

Hello,

I just registered this forum while surfing and I’m curious about what you think about Bing.
According to some news it already started to overtake Yahoo. But it seems to me they can’t beat Google. I think more creative ideas and some vision is needed to overtake Google.

Besides of that there’s adsense and adword industry. Google is creative and established firm, Bing brings nothing new to us.

If Google creates linux based operating system, maybe they can overtake Microsoft?

Yep.

"Be not evil"
A.K.A. Be not Microsoft.

Bing? Ive never tryed it and I dont think Im likely to try it any time soon. I give them credit for taking on Google but its going to require some heavy lifting to make the search engine giant even notice.

Can I be honest? I feel like a typing oxymoron every time I use Google, which is just over 1million times a day. My standard wisdom warns against anything that seems too good or too trustable. Google is as near to a perfect company as any company can get.

I bought a G1 just because it was Google. Because the G1 is from Google, I know it will be a good phone that wont piss me off like most of the smart phones of the past have. Ive been using the G1 about 6months now, I love it.

If Google begins to make computer operating systems, you can bet they will be free. I will likely support them as well. Not because it bares the name "Google". But, because Google has proven itself to not be Microsoft like. Time and time again, unlike Microsoft, Google makes sure that it's products are great before releasing them. Then they continue to make their products better and better.

I often joke around about the likelihood of Google beginning a protect titled "Armageddon."
Could Google be the Anti-Christ? It would make sence. Today, the true leaders of the worlds are no longer running companies. Instead they run businesses. Google HAS united the world, in a way.

Update: I just went to bing.com

Bing is from Microsoft? HAHAHA! They just took a nose dive in my book of coo dos. I thought Bing.com was something new. Turns out its just another failed* attempted by microsoft to take back lost ground.

* This is my unsupported opinion. I have 0 facts, have done no research, and know nothing about what Im talking about. (haha, try to flame me now, micro-fans)

I quite like bing, better than the old msn search engine and it has some great pics on the homepage.

I was quick to dismiss bing, but I think they may have a few tricks up their sleeve to help them build better search results and it may rely on IE8.

There's no way Bing will ever beat Google. Not a chance. Bing's popularity hasn't significantly improved over the past few months. The stats can attest to that.

Google is my favorite search engine for its reliability and accuracy, but Bing shines at certain tasks, and I would not be surprised to see some of Bing / Google Mashup applications grow and become useful. For now, Bing vs. Google is essentially a novelty, but it does help drive home some unique advantages that both search engines have.

Default Bing offers a pretty neat image search

Google is my go-to search engine, however, I think Bing offers a better image search.
