    was 4/5 google but only went 1/5 bing to see if it was bing or not.

    everything i searched google had 1.5-2x the results as bing.
    but bing is getting better than it was.

    I am a diehard Microsoft fan but generally use Google for my Internet searches. Lately I have been using Bing more but realize that I have been getting slightly better results from Google especially in regards to technology solutions searches. For now I will stick with Google....

    My search queries aren't that creative, but I wanted to try and test the search algorithm with acronyms, abbreviations, and/or slangs to give one search algorithm an edge over the other.

    The results are to be expected...
