Not really. I don't care what I use...as long as I get my answer.

BTW....I don't like BING Crosby! I do like Sidney Crosby though! Go PENS Go!

From what I heard on the news, (I haven't tried it myself) it will guide you more to business and such rather than anything else you might be searching for. I can just imagine they will probably recommend the buisnesses that pay them the most.

Google does something similar with their AdWords service. The more you pay, the more likely you are to get to the top of the search page (as well as be in the sponsor links on the side and very top).

Regardless of how they do it, I don't really get why anyone would challenge Google. I have used Google since the beginning, and only used other ones on very rare occasions, like when I'm on another person's computer and their homepage is set to yahoo or something. None of them are as good as Google.

I tried it just because I saw it on the news or on a commercial or something. I'm so used to Google, then I will probably stick with it until something takes over Google.

Anybody remember the world before Google? Yahoo. Excite. AskJeeves. I know there were others that failed or at least didn't become as popular and mainstream.

I seem to remember Lycos being one of the first search engines. That and AltaVista and InfoSeek were kind of the original popular ones.

Don't care about "bing" because i only prefer Google to search and for short answer i use wolframalpha because it doesn't provide any link for simple question like other search engine....

When a search engine's name becomes a verb used to describe looking something up, I think it's time to give up on trying to compete with them.

Someone already rushed out and bought this domain though: lmbtfy.com

IMO, It's quite good and fast but Bing has a lot of work to be at Google's level
