I hate Bing. There. I said it. After my recent questions about friends' search behaviors I decided to set my default search engine to Bing to try it out. Some of them swear by it. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. Like 50% of my queries on Bing, I can't find what I'm looking for, but I know that Google can answer my question. I switch over to Google and BANG (not Bing :-D) first result! Perhaps the friends who liked Bing do mostly
navigational searches. I don't know. Or perhaps I have learned how to formulate my queries based on feedback from using Google so much. I don't know. Either way, one month after starting my Bing trial, I'm heading back to Google. Goodbye, Bing!

I tried it too... it just wasn't worth it. I didn't even make it a week, though.
I'm also a Bing hater. I love the simplicity of Google. I did the google advanced search but it was easier for me to just use the +/- (etc) operators in the main search bar.
