I find that very easy to believe and I have predicted that for awhile!!

Google should hang on to this thought:

GREED will inprison us all!!

That was a good read!!

Even more surprising is AOL's customer satisfaction number of 67. I've never known anyone who was satisfied with AOL.

You may want to actually read what the thread is about before making unrelated comments.

Seriously, it is not hard, just read the first post and the link provided - see not hard at all.

I am a big fan of Google, and although they are now the guys to beat, I think they are doing a great job. I must admit though, sometimes Google is just too thorough with their results turning up many listings that are not really user friendly...this is where Yahoo is beating them out in my opinion.

The points, 78 and 79, are very close, so I don't think Yahoo! has won that convincingly.....

I think the vast majority of us have felt google slipping for a while, however, once you are at the top there isn't really anywhere to go but down...I'm sure Google will get it together.

But, still I think google is best. In Asia, Yahoo is marching always ahead of Google.

Yahoo! might have more points than Google but in my opinion, Google is still better than Yahoo! and it's the first thing that comes to ur mind when you want to search something!

I was just as astonished when I saw Yahoo was higher than Google on Alexa. I converted a long time ago and I am not giving up on Google.
