Oh dear Bing ... gotcha! I wonder how old Jeeves gets his info?

Let the cat fight commence!

 

Publicity is never bad it seems. I would have found the story more interesting if it was not busy trying cheap point scoring. Of course all is fair in publicity wars

 

Hahaha interesting

They do have a point, uh?

 

Bing sets the record straight

Google ain't so innocent

 

I think the MS reply is kinda insulting. I'm no search engine guru, obviously. But the response includes:

So Bing brought nice photos to the search engine homepage. They made "big" improvements in search results. And there's a rumor Google is worried.

And I guess MS was once again duped by a malware technique.

 

I don't think Bing is really copying Google
There's another Forums i visit and some dudes tried a few searches and they were all different.

 

Bing's results are definitely different from Google. Sometimes better, sometimes worse.

 

I have never noticed any similarities but hey I am no guru..

 

Yeah, both are search engines, both are supposed to search, sometimes they bring similar results (Of all the screenshots i've seen, most of the time only 1 results is similar, and sometimes it's a WIKIPEDIA article )
