Because Google has chosen to not show every link to try to keep from bogging down the servers from all the queries they get.
well for me, Google's still the best. Although Yahoo is one of the big search engine, Google works better for me in terms of research...
I liked your study comparison. I have not had time to read it thoroughly but my scanned read of it found it very useful. A study I performed ~ 1 year ago was similar but I did a generational comparison. I had 2 < 16 year old, 2 30-40 year olds, and 2 > 60. Each had to come up with 3 questions to answer, then all 6 members had to answer all 18 questions. The summary result of that was Google was #1, followed by Yahoo, thenMSN/Live and last was ask.
Very interesting read It's funny because we all give our opinion as to which search engine is best but this guy actually did some research about the topic.
for many years Google has been my "home page" in my web browser, I recently changed it to Yahoo search. http://search.yahoo.com/web I hope more people do the same.
Honestly both of them are good in providing information, but in every competition there is always above and I found google fine^_^
yas some catgories like Arts,News,Games,Business it is very usufull but computer and science google is number one.
It is quite obvious that Google is the better search engine out of the two. Although people know about Yahoo, they know or have known Google for longer, and have used it for longer. I certainly have anyway. It has always being my homepage and always will be for the future
i think google is better as search engine. they always give precise result. yahoo only good for e-mail
