What is the big issue with Bing as a search engine? People seem to really not like it around here i guess. I can see not like old hat things like Yahoo.. or legacy ones like Excite.
Bing's site search seems to work better then Google..

dont get me wrong i like google and isohunt for searching as well. and my primary email is a gmail account now.. (although i still open my Excite email once in a blue moon to keep it active since i have had that same email address since 1996)

Googles CASHED pages arent as "cashed" and backed up as much as Bing.. check it out. Also the Chased page on Bing opens and then loads from the Microsoft Sever ASP, not your local machine like Google.. so if you are in a work enviroment where you cant get around a Websence block page program you can use Bing to open and read cashed pages all day and all that shows up in your browser history and such is MSN/BIng not the actual site you are trying to open.

ok first off i want to explain i do not subscribe to the microsoft hater society. i think if others want to make a better OS they should go for it and they would be compitition. but allas idealizm keeps companies from doing it.

Bing is a painful site to look at and load whereas google clean fast and effective.

Bings results are better than most alternates but still not as on point as google for my technical searches. they still have the best ranking algorythm
