@Keith Yeah, I just had a total smackdown today. Need a copy of the clean install for Movable Type 2.63 from 2003. I search Google for the file name “MT-2.63.tar.gz” and I get several (albeit fruitless) links. I search Bing? Nada nada limonada.

@Scot I agree, I was just pointing out the fact that they gained around 1% of market share in US from Google, and like you I rely more on Google and seldom use Bing for searching content

Oh, please. Bing does some neat sifting, but Google has unequivocally better recall, meaning it brings back all the fish in the sea. My argument rests there.
