Does Bing's ever change? Do they do special things for holidays or "days that will live in infamy"? I've never noticed.

Yeah, yesterday they had an image of the Arizona Memorial. Google had nothing.
But Google has Popeye today, so I guess that honors the Navy, or something.

Bing's changes pretty regularly, if not every day.

Were it not blocked out by my Stalinized, Nazi-fied web filter, I'd be able to check. Yes, my job's web app BLOCKS bing.com due to its (& I quote) "adult content."

I read the whole thing. Pretty funny. Suggests to me that Microsoft is done as innovators.
They need more millennials.

Bing has 14.7% of the search market and is proud to proclaim it is gaining on Google and has taken share from the search giant. CNN, however, points out that the gain Bing has made in the search market is in fact not coming from Google, but third place Yahoo. Since Bing launched, Google has lost market share slightly from 65% at Bing's debut to 64.8% today.

I'm curious to see the next numbers since the latest forced firefox update now uses yahoo as the default search.

And I wonder if Microsoft employees get in trouble if they just randomly say, "Hmmmm, I don't know but I will google it."

I use Bing daily to get my points towards free Amazon gift cards. However, that's all automated searches.
It's set as the default in my IE at home (Chrome and Firefox are set with Google), but honestly, anytime I search for something even remotely out of the mainstream I find that Google is much better.

This.
And my wife left FireFox over the Yahoo thing.

Yeah. That search window in the title bar and stuff. Google used to have its own toolbar you could install but they killed it when all the browsers had it baked in. Not sure if they started updating it again.

I'm using firefox right now. I can google with the best of them. I'm not forced to yahoo.

I just learned you can pretty easily change this... firefox now uses yahoo as its DEFAULT search shit, but that can be changed in options under the hourglass. Gives you back control of the little search window in the toolbar.TheCatt wrote:It's not just defaults. It's like... embedded.Malcolm wrote:Defaults?
