Bing Now Bigger Than Digg, Twitter and CNN

    I just read somewhere that Bing now bigger than Digg, Twitter and CNN?
    Is that true?

    It has given Google pause since its launch at the beginning of June. What you think on this?

    You "just read somewhere"?

    Please post sources...

    Doesn't sounds very realistic...

    I don't think it is. It has a chance to, but not at the moment.

    Haha yeah, I'm pretty sure Bing isn't any more popular than it Live search was. Maybe some people went over to check out the site after Microsoft spent so much money on advertising the new search engine, but really there's nothing different. It definitely doesn't rank higher than Digg

    Although I'm not a big fan, Bing has been taking baby steps upward:

    Alexa rank is a not way to compare. Bing will lose a lot after initial hype!

    I would be happy if Bing becomes alot bigger and more successful. Any company that slows down the world domination of Google is a good thing in my opinion.

    I'm not against Google. I've been making money from Adsense for a few years now. When a company gets to big they can make all the rules and nobody can stop them. Google already does and there is nothing you or I can do about it.:D You see? that is the problem right there. Anyway...when companies have to compete against each other the consumer benefits. The more they compete and not dominate, the more the consumer will benefit. Imagine there were 10 different alternatives to Adsense all of similar size/strength. The natural thing that will happen is; they will compete for your business e.g. pay you more. This is good for us. While Google rules the world we miss out on a better deal and that’s the way it is.

    Yep, competition almost always benefits the consumer. It should help us all make extra money online.
