hi everyone, google and bing search links are redirecting to unrelated sites, to the point where i have to use the cached version of the site or copy and paste as much of the link as they provide to get where i'm trying to get. i ran trendmicro's hijack this …

Steve Ballmer, [URL="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/mar/03/microsoft-bing"]speaking[/URL] at the [URL="http://searchmarketingexpo.com/"]Search Engine Marketing Expo[/URL] this week, credited Google with being the first company to get internet search done right. Google certainly wasn't the [URL="http://searchenginewatch.com/2175241"]first internet search engine[/URL]. Yahoo!, InfoSeek, Excite and Alta Vista to name but a few, came along long before Google emerged in …

I realized last week that somehow inexplicably, Microsoft has become the underdog. Want proof? The US Justice Department *and* the EU approved the search deal with Yahoo! That the United States approved the deal is not really news because Justice has rarely met a deal it didn't like no matter …

Hi, Does anyone have any information on Google and Bing planning to include Twitter posts within their searches? This sounds really bizarre or will it be in a seperate search function? Anyone heard anything about this?

Earlier this week [URL="http://www.daniweb.com/news/story244378.html"]I read a very interesting article [/URL]written by my colleague Davey Winder about the new search engine[URL="http://www.ecosia.org"] Ecosia[/URL]. After reading Davies article, I decided to do some research comparing Ecosia vs. the monster search engine [URL="http://www.google.com"]Google[/URL]. Ecosia claims that one search via Google uses around the same …

According to[URL="http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/jan2010/tc20100119_759795.htm"] various reports[/URL], Apple has approached Microsoft about making Bing the default search engine on the iPhone. I'm sure it's all enough to make Steve Ballmer come out from behind his desk and do a happy dance. His little search engine that could is being portrayed as the anti-Google, …

As someone who works almost exclusively in Google for Adwords campaigns I was wondering if Bing had anything similar. I would imagine they do but as I do not spend a great deal of time outside of Google (per my clients request that I focus on the SE that will …

Bing has a better conversion ratio as compared to Google. However, Bing gets low traffic share as compared to Google, but if you get some click from Bing then it will turn in lead ( on most of the occasions). The best thing about Bing is that it has a …

If the new [URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/searchengineland/4117327765/"]Google interface design[/URL] is any indication, it appears that Google might actually be feeling a little heat, or at least some influence, from Bing. [URL="http://searchengineland.com/staff"]Danny Sullivan[/URL], who has been covering search for years, had a [URL="http://searchengineland.com/google-streamlines-search-options-30143"]post in his Search Engine Land blog [/URL]last week about the new …

It's supposed to be Windows 7's big week, but other news just seems to keep getting in the way. And it's not just competitors like the news coming out of Apple this week, it's big announcements coming from inside Microsoft too. You would think that Microsoft could at least keep …

[ATTACH=right]11664[/ATTACH]I confess I'm not always kind to Microsoft. They stumble and bumble and often make bad decisions, and as such make a great target for a blogger like me, but looking back at the announcements they've made over the last couple of weeks, when you add it all up, they …

Though Bing may not necessarily out beat Google, it is now a preferred search engine for image search and verticals. [url]http://www.bing.com/visualsearch[/url] So what do you think? Would you use images for your online communities and optimize it to increase traffic to your site?

I spoke with a friend of mine today who complained on how she thought Bing interrupted her user experience while being on Yahoo. She consulted me since I am considered the tech guru. Thus, I wonder if you have heard similar complaints. What are your thoughts?

[I]I'm special, so special. I got to have some of your attention, give it to me! ~Pretenders, Brass in Pocket [/I] Ah the games companies play trying so hard to get our attention. For the last 6 weeks or so Microsoft has done a fine job of turning the media …

Yesterday was the major league baseball trade deadline and lots of teams made [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4369463"]big deals[/URL] and took huge gambles for short-term gain, while possibly risking the future in the form of younger, cheaper, but unproven talent.

An interesting story on the BBC site says there's yet another search facility starting up, following the launch of [URL="http://www.bing.com"]Bing[/URL], [URL="http://www.wolframalpha.com"]Wolfram Alpha[/URL] and Google wave.

I've[URL="http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry4290.html"] speculated in the past[/URL] that nothing could keep Google from moving Android from a phone to a computer.

Over the years there has been plenty of [URL="http://www.itwire.com/content/view/20745/53/"]speculation regarding the sanity[/URL] of Steve 'Monkey Dancing' Ballmer, the Microsoft CEO.

Speaking about consumer search [URL="http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2009/06/18/ballmer-we-should-have-built-search-sooner/"]last week[/URL], Steve Ballmer said he now regrets that Microsoft quote "didn't start earlier" unquote. But it seems to me that Microsoft has been all in for a long time and they just haven't been very successful at consumer search. It wasn't so much they gave …

I've seen a lot of love for Microsoft's newly branded search engine, [URL="http://www.bing.com/"]Bing[/URL] lately and frankly I just don't get it.
