I use Bing, for me, Google's results just aren't sufficient anymore. The first links aren't the best anymore. Bing seems to be catching on. A decision engine isn't what you think it is.

Hmmm - I think you're the first person I know who has a positive opinion of Bing. I'm not quite sure if I agree with your assessment that "Google's results just aren't sufficient anymore" though - In fact - I highly disagree, as google always returns fabulous results for me. I think Bing is in essense Microsoft's lame attempt to get back some of the loyalty it's lost to google. I mean - there's a HUGE chunck of the populace who depend on google, then came Google Chrome and many who were users of IE chose it, and now there's talk of a google OS...? Yeah - Microsoft might be trembling in their boots perhaps IDK - but I think Bing is just a major fail.

I like bings image search because it will just keep loading more and more images no pesky page to page. On dialup bing image search engine is much nicer.

I like their Video Search. I suspect that Google will eventually do something like that down the road, as their current version kinda sucks. Other than that, I just haven't tried it too much. Don't hate it. Don't love it. It's just I have a place I already go for that. They haven't given me reason enough to change my habits.

On a related note, who here has seen the video about the guy fired for not saying Bing at the Microsoft offices enthusiastically enough? Now my wife and I now about around the house just saying Bing! for no reason.

Why exactly did Google take this function away? They had it up for like a week and then went back to pesky page reloads.

Semi-related: there is a neat plugin for Firefox called AutoPager that will load subsequent pages on many sites. It works on some of my vBulletin forums (ones I visits, and two I operate), some of my phpBB forums, and of course, works good on Google results. As you scroll down the page, it loads the subsequent page beneath. I can see how you would use up memory in the browser, but I've found it is a nice plugin when you want to concentrate on reading lengthy topics or lists of search results.

I used AutoPager once, it sucks on MySpace, works great on forums.....some pages are just messed up sometimes. I don't use it anymore.

BING is a joke imo. I get ZERO traffic from BING eventhough I rank 1st page for 80% of my keywords on one of my websites. BING will have me at #2 and GOOGLE at #187 for the same keyword. Sucks
