      Bing is too cluttered IMHO. Google is simple, and has a nice clean white background.

      Google has a lot more going on behind the scenes, the only problem being that most people don't know it even exists, so they can't appreciate it.

      Not real happy with Microsoft right now. So no. I'll stick with Google for now.

      Exactly. Google is technically more advanced than Bing.

      But, I must admit, I do sometimes wish Google would spruce up the design a little. :D I guess that's what iGoogle is for.

      You should make a poll :)

      I definitely prefer Google, it's more advanced (and to be honest, I don't like Microsoft).

      Why should I appreciate the fact that Google is collecting all my data?

      That's not what I was talking about, so take your insecurity issues to someone else.

      It pays to be paranoid.

      I tried Bing out, I wanted to like it since it was visually more appealing and it seemed to have a decent concept. But, Google conquers all.

      Bing is more cluttered than Google. Doesn't stand a chance.

      After spending most of the day playing around on Bing, i agree with you guys.
      Google is much more powerful and less cluttered. I do like the Bing front page, but i am not crazy about the cluttered search result page.

      So its back to Google i go on my computer.


      But have you tried the Bing iPhone app?
      That app seems ahead of Googles mobile app.

      Google is simple, but effective.
