Bing Speed

    I wasn't expecting much from Bing, since this is the third major rebranding (MSN search became Live became Bing), but I tried it and WOW!

    Very impressive. It's even faster than Google. I never thought the day would come when I'd say that. You search for something, and before you realize it it's already there. If you blink, you miss it. Now that's FAST!

    The quality of the search is one thing, the speed is another. I think Google once said that the period of time people register in their minds as a "wait" is 0.2 seconds. Speed is often overlooked as a factor in Google's success - Google's results are important, but speed plays a huge role. That's why numerous search startups just couldn't compete with Google, even though some of them return better results. People just don't want to wait more than a nanosecond. And Google was the only engine that didn't make you wait for the results.

    Until Bing came along.

    A Google killer has arrived. Yahoo! is out of the picture. It's now between Bing and Google, and I wouldn't be surprised if in 2-3 years time, Bing gets more searches than Google. I think this is very good news for the web.

    I can't realize the difference of speed between google and bing. The only pro for bing is the design, but it's not enough to beat google.

    Bing did some extra stuff that might attract webmasters as well.

    But it wont help that much, The best Bing can do probably is to compete Yahoo!/Ask and similar ones.

    Google is way more then just a SE, It is the Internet God.

    I don't think Bing is the Google killer. Not yet anyway. I agree, it is huge competition and it's one of the most decent things that Microsoft have done in a while. Especially after Windows Vista lol. ;)

    I have found the both the quality and speed of Bing to be a big improvement over msn Live. Time will tell how it competes with Google, but it is obvious tha Microsoft is not ready to roll over on search yet.

    Bing's results are more accurate IMO. Try using it a bit more and maybe you'll agree with me.

    Honestly, bing search is much faster than google search, I got indexed for very important keywords. I even beat important popular sites in their keywords. Bing has made me proud!

    Now Bing has very few users comparing it with Google users, but I think that Bing can be a real competitor with G, in 5 or 10 years. but it's expected.
