    Anybody ever find they get better results with search.msn.com ? Sometimes I find they list sites that just aren't in google. Almost as if in google's attempt to exclude every spam site out there they may have taken some quality sites too.

    Hi,

    depends on the search. I sometimes find them more useful for driver/firmware updates and programming issues.

    I'm kind of used to the feel of Google though - sort of an SE brand loyalty.

    Cheers,
    Paz.

    I've found MSN to include more fresh, recent results. Google is just getting stale. MSN, however, seems more prone to search spam.

    Not True. Judging by recent publication of searches made on the engines, Google is increasing the gap from the others. Surprisingly, MSN has seen a big drop of almost 4 % points, while Yahoo has also seen a drop, albeit, a smaller one.

    I just think MSN has better technology and ranking system. Also, I don't think that they play favorites to the big guys that pay them big money. MSN is, in my opinion, is based soley on facts!
