Google vs Yahoo! vs MSN

Postby arn0ld on Sun Apr 30, 2006 11:09 pm

hmmm. yahoo, google, and msn. these 3, i think, are the most popular search engines nowadays.. can you guys give some comments about these engines

me, i use google most of the time cause it loads faster and they allow keywords (e.g. site, file), operators, etc inorder to view the best results Wink

It's been at least 6 or 7 years since I've last used Yahoo.
I've never used MSN search engine, nor do I plan to.. This has nothing to do with Microsoft, I just can't stand MSN and its services.

So I guess it's Google for me.

Google has more speed and better organization.
I've never used MSN, never want to.
Yahoo I used once.
It burned my eyes.

I honestly use google more than anything else, but what is your opinion regarding their business practices? Do you think they are stepping too far on your privacy?

Personally, I really dont know where to stand anymore. I love Google, but they've all had their corporate battles, and Google seems to be turning into one of those ugly nasty entities that everyone trusts.. more like a conglomerate in the making it seems... So it makes everything a little distrusting.

Stepping too far on privacy? Yeah, the way they immediately handed the search logs to the US when they were asked for..

If you are referring to gmail and the ads, it's all bots.

I personally perfer google, because when you visit google.com, there aren't any popups or ads to distrat you. It gives me that clean feeling. Not only that, there's also googlefight. xDDD Which is fun to play. But, anyway, I do prefer google over others, partly because of me having a google toolbar in my browser.

I use only google. It works good enough and there is no reason to try out the other search engines Smile
