why Bing > Google
#1
Today I've read that Bing's market share have grown by 0.4% in the past month while google's dipped.
I was curious about why such a crappy search engine as Bing could be taking up google's market share.
So I started to experiment with Bing, I tried searching some stuff with Google and compare them to Bing. As I expected, google's search results are much more relevant.
I then tried the image search, Bing's image results is not much different from Google's, but there's an option for showing similar image in Bing. However the similar image option doesn't really return "similar images". For example if I search Tower, and scroll down to find a picture of CN tower, press "show similar images" Eiffel tower and all other towers are still all over the place.
I've find nothing in Bing that surpasses Google, so just as I was about to close Bing, I had a naughty thought, and typed in the word inside the Bing image search. It didn't show any result and suggested me to turn off Safesearch which is enabled by default. After turning it off, all the images came out. All the images that google doesn't have. I now understand why Bing is gaining market share, and maybe I shall use Bing too when working on special assignmentsRolleyes

Seems I may be using Bing for certain reasons, but I'll be using Google for everything else.

Google is hands down the best search engine. Bing is just some nub thing that no one knows about so they have to have commercials.

Yea, I never heard about Bing till a few weeks ago when I saw the commercial. I wonder what happened to Live[.com] then? I though that was Microsoft's SE, unless Bing is the newer version.

Microsoft claims Bing is the "first ever decision engine". Fk no, I make my own decisions, and if I can't make my own decisions after 5 minutes, I use a coin to make my decision for me.

I like Bing because it's Microsoft owned, yet when you search for "Microsoft Serials", about 1,000 pop up.

Won't searching for a search engine using a search engine cause dividing by 0? :f6:

no, thats only when you use a search engine to search for a search engine in general. using google to find bing would result in many bings, but asking google to find a search engine is like asking an apple how to make oil; that would cause a division of zero.
