    Back when Dial-Up was used by 99% of the people, the simplicity of google really made the website better. But now, its a matter of search results, and they win in that too. Props to Google for searching, but Yahoo.com is still my homepage.

    I think it's google's advanced searching algorithm which makes google dominate the searching market.

    Back in the day when altavista was still a relevant search engine, google really won out on relevancy. These days I think the other search engines are almost as good - but Danny Sullivan's research seems to show that the simple layout just makes it easier to pick out the best search result on google, then on MSN.

    Most important is search relevance. The clean look also matters - I mean when I want to FIND something I go to google - msn is more like some sort of portal with lots of stuff (and ads etc) not related to searching.

    Google is king because of their ability to sift out spam and bring the most relevant results.

    Google's most relevant search results... are you kidding?

    As the time goes by you get more adsense farms and hijacked websites rather than relevant results so my option is not listed: brainwashing.

    Personally the easy-ness of use of google is what makes it better. I dont wanna see a bunch of ads and links when im trying to search for something...google has the search bar and nothing else. and it looks good doing it :p
