    No problem! See - I can like chocolate, love the US, have a college degree and still use Yahoo as my search engine.

    But back to the intent of the thread - Google does need to continue improving their search results. One of the main reasons I like Yahoo is that it seems to get pages in their index much faster than Google - this is the primary reason that I prefer Yahoo. Has anyone else noticed a difference or is it just me?

    However - in the blog search world - Google's blog search is very quick to add items to their blog index.

    I guess you could but the Yahoo part still baffles me greatly. I can see how total newbs to the internet could like yahoo but you don't appear to be new to it.


    I agree. Google needs to keep changing as they do or they will lose their position. So far I think they have done well.
    Yahoo Indexes much faster but also indexed alot of spam. Ask any BH spammer. They will tell you they last alot longer and make most of their money off Yahoo! because yahoo can't detect them easy.

    Its quite possible for Google to reinvent itself.. Afterall didn't IBM reinvent itself even after the initial loss to Apple [Way back in the early 80s :)]...

    Google can still dominate the SEworld, maybe an insane person can think of a way to give a serious competition to Google

    I love Google for search results and both adsense and adwords (great services).

    However, all companies have their ups and downs, competitors catching up and new schemes that change the industry.
    Somebody will find a way to really compete with them sooner or later.

    I am not holding my breath, though :p

    I don't think yahoo and msn will catch up google. There should be another company more focus on SEs to compete with google, just like AMD to Intel.

    Google is known as one of the biggest SEs and I think it would take maybe 10 or 20 years to catch up with Google

    Yeah a BIG bump to an old discussion .. But has anything changed in the last 6 years?

    I'm one of you who has been waiting to see some real competitors coming up. NONE .. It's the same old story .. Google is the best .. Yahoo and Bing are just little babies.

    Oh there is some difference, but what it is? Google came up with Chrome browser to completely kick off IE. But there's large majority of people still using IE? That's because it comes with the ole Windows OS. Don't ye worry, Goog has Android to completely derail Windows. In another few years we can all say goodbye to our laptops and desktops. We all will be using tablets and other handheld devices which will be equipped with the mighty Android.

    Then what? Yahoo, MS, Bing, Live, etc will be history!
