Bing Search vs. Google Search

[12Danny123]

Bing. Cause I always felt that Bing always gave me the best results while Google gave me random ones first

Just about the only thing I think Google does better is searching even if theres a typo in the keywords that you search for.

I was just searching for this restoration shaman guide from Icy Veins (WoW stuff) and I accidently Binged for "resto shaman icy veinc" and got 0 results. When I fixed the typo so it was "icy veins", I found all the usual stuff and exactly what I looked for. I've had Bing show me results with the kind of "Did you mean..?"-kinda thing, but this is quite typical to bing that even one letter typoed gives me zero results whatsoever, while Google is still able to find the thing I look for.

It's not that big of a deal when I know how to write the thing correctly, but sometimes you are not sure how something it spelled and you might be without results..

I use Bing mostly for the rewards and because I love the new backgrounds every day, but I also just flat out don't like Google. It drives me nuts when people say "Google it," but "Bing it" sounds so stupid that I just go with it. I usually just say "look it up."

Here are a few threads regarding Bing vs. GOOG that were discussed recently. Should give you some good information:

Google on the desktop, more out of habit.

Perhaps I should give Bing a try.

Google. I just have tons of experience working with it, I know how to use Google, I known how it "behaves".

So... I ask you WPC members... Bing search vs. Google search...

Which do you use on a daily basis, and WHY?

occasionally = bing, to see if the results are better. or yahoo. or whatever the 'cool this week' engine is.

google= consistantly, on whatever platform i'm using, for whatever i'm searching, it provides predictable, relevant results

sometimes the algorithm is changed (it's changed a LOT by all the engines) and one will out perform the other for me, for a few days. occasionally one engine is completely worthless for my queries, and i end up using a competitor, but return to google for it's clean, fast, simple UI on the search page, and all the Google+ built ins that work so well.

I like Bing, as another stated, for the rewards and awesome pics. Their search is fair too. I do sometimes still use Google though, it usually brings up more than Bing. I am using Bing more and more though.

It would be interesting to compare the search results from: Google/bing/yahoo/Babylon and see which search engine gives the most relevant results on the first 3 websites provided.

After using Bing 99% for about 3 months. I find I don't mind it at all and the results seem to be a bit more relevant if not the same as Google. Plus it just looks cleaner

I stopped using Google nearly 2 years ago in favor of Bing, I do however use youtube occasionally. But, overall I'm loving Bing.

This recent article reminds me exactly why I stopped being a Google ******.

 

[marcomura]

I don't understand being a ****** of something. I don't use a service because it's from the team I root for, I use a service because it provides the best experience.
And about search engines, google provides the best one. I don't like google, but its search engine has no rivals.

Yes. I use Bing on Chrome.

 

[angusdegraosta]

I use both search engines, Bing maybe a little more often.
