Google was a Search Engine, today is a cult object and money generator. People will hardly admit its mistakes and weakness
Search is an evolving industry, and Microsoft has vowed to dominate the industry.. I remember the days when I used to search with Webcrawler and then Altavista.. Google was when search really "grew up." A lot can change over the next few years.. but those Google folks are very very smart.
Kind of interesting that msn, google and yahoo (top 3 sites) are so close to each other traffic wise. However when you add the 4th largest site (baidu.com... japanese search engine) it is signicantly lower then the other 3. http://www.alexaholic.com/google.com+msn.com+yahoo.com+Baidu.com
I never used anything else after Google's launch. I like Google too much! Woww... It's like poem. I can sell this poem to Google.
i only find crap when i use google search. Honestly and I love google. i find more relevant results when i use msn search (i hate microsoft). MSN search is actually pretty good
The days of altavista indeed.. , but now its Google.. we can blame them everything, that's easy.. but they gave a lot of webmasters a chance to grow further and earn money easily like BasedSolutions says. I like the strategie of Google. We will see where it ends. Baidu is indeed chinese..
So from what i can see, google could become unpopular anyday, just need something like ask.com tryed to do and succeed.
By looking at Ask.com it worth nothing at all . http://www.alexaholic.com/google.com+msn.com+yahoo.com+baidu.com+ask.com
I always used Yahoo for search and I like them. If I do not find what I am looking for then I go to Google and then to msn. I hate Google but I use them. Thanks
In my personal searching I have found that Google consistently produces the best results for me. I have had experiences where Google was the only one of the "big three" search engines to actually have information I was looking for, others did not even have the page in their index.
