I've TRIED to use what was it? chandler? anyways it just doesn't stack up. google, wikipedia and wolfram alpha seem to be doing a pretty damn good job of telling me what i need to know. #markcuban
There's a better way for MSFT to try to kill Google. Just offer to list Google's customers for free. It worked in the borwser war and it will work here. There's no better way to destroy your competition than to offer something for nothing.
That, of course, begs the question whether or not Bing is a good search engine to begin with. If not, no one will take the free offer. #markcuban
That's an interesting concept, but I'm pretty sure you would need to pay much more than $1,000,000 to get many of the top 1000 websites to delist from Google. I mean, Yahoo, EBay, CNN, Facebook, etc. are up there. To them, that's pocket change. #markcuban
But that upfront bill that wouldn't get past Microsoft's stock holders, let alone the US government's anti-competition watchdogs.
Yes, this is exactly what anti-trust legislation was made for... a larger competitor shouldn't be able to crush smaller competitors by paying other companies not to do business with them. You want to crush your competition? Then build a better mousetrap than them. #markcuban
With the top site being Google, this plan will work great! We give them money and they delist themselves from themselves, and there will be no risk of the internet being broken. #markcuban

what bugs me the most about bing is how far it narrows down searches. when I use google on gizmodo it returns hundreds of results giving me a choice of what I want. I think the most results I gotten on bing for any given search was maybe 5 results. it's like its telling you what they what you to go to.
@redking31591: I couldn't agree more. I don't care about bing's opinion of what I'm looking for, i want to see what the web has to offer and make the assessment on my own.
When you search for "Gizmodo" or other things it may only display one or two things, but you can click "Search for other results containing gizmodo" right under the result to immediately view all the other results. It's one extra click...
