So how is Bing doing for you? Does it float your boat?

Seems reasonably decent.. I was not really expecting anything too worthwhile but Microsoft seems to have pulled a rabbit out of the hat with this - it actually works well and looks nice! wacko.gif

Whether its enough to take on Google remains to be seen but I have switched to it for the time being to give it a proper trial, will you?

Google has done me, and by proxy, our customers, well.

It's really hard for me to make the effort to change because I also use just about every Google app out there and it's all dashboarded for me using iGoogle.

I just haven't seen the value in switching yet.

I dunno ... Searching for The Planet on Bing brings up 4 results on the front page from us ... Google only brings up 3. icon_smile.gif

On a semi-related note, I have a feeling that if it catches on, the sentence above will look like "Searching for The Planet Bings up 4 results."

I take that back ... we're #2 on Google for dedicated servers ... on Bing, we're #10. I'm never searching Bing again. icon_wink.gif

Not
Google


Like Tomy said when you are already using so many Google apps there is little value in switching.

We are now #1 on Bing! The only difference between the two sites as of this post is..... Bing actually has us as the second option as you type in your search, Google did not rolleyes.gif
