guys, in the end, Google and MS are both corporations that wants our money.  So it is like the PC vs Mac, whose ass will we kiss, Gates or Jobs.  Likewise for Google searches vs Bing searches.  Whose evil wisdom will we rely on from the dark side.

The only thing interesting that i have heard is that ms is trying to get big companies to not to pay Google for page ranking services.  

Guys, unless you all have timeline/deadlines to meet, working in some big corporations, then just simple go through a few pages of your google or bing searches.  In the business world, i was told that when execs search for things, they never have the time to go beyond the first page.   I hope we all here have a bit of luxury call a bit of time.   And who cares which one is better, if one doesn't hack it for whichever purpose, it is good to have alternative.    

Make a test... go to http://www.blackdog.ie/google-bing/search-com.php ... in the field near "Google Versus Bing", type "sins of solar empire"... on the Google side, the first link is to sinsofsolarempire.com ... with bink, the first link is a sponsor link to byway...

Same search for "dragon age origins"... with Google, one sponsor link at the left... with Bing, 3 sponsor link at the top and 2 at the left !!!

These simple example show that in fact, Bing is more about ads that google... can you show me evidence that Google have more ads that Bing ?

By the way, http://www.blackdog.ie/google-bing/search-com.php can be a interesting tool, allowing to make a search on the two search engine and having the result on a single page...

I do not get the same results. I searched "sins of a solar empire" on Bing and Google, and on the site you linked. Both had the same result; a lot more ads on Google than Bing. Here's some screenshots to prove it.

Bing:

Google:

One ad on Bing, 4 on Google. Also, most of Google's income is from advertising. They are pretty much the ad kings of the internet.

Strange that we have different result...

Now, for a Google search with "sins of a solar empire", i have no ads, 7720000 result in 0.09 sec...

With bing, one advent and 730000 result...

Do Microsoft detect that i have 2 other OS on my computer and punish me for it ? By the way, with Google, i have never these side ads... only sometime at the top of the page... with bing, i can have them on the top of the page and on the side...

So, let say that at the ads level, both are equal...

If you don't believe me, i have screenshot too... if needed, i will post them when i will be able to reboot my system... my ftp is working only with linux...

No they aren't, although probably they should just for you.

I don't see ANY ads from either search engine.
