So you have probably heard of it, but Bing is Microsoft’s answer to winning back some market share from the ever dominant Google. Many have tried to take a jab at it and have failed. This time, I believe, Microsoft may have something here.

I know, we all love Google. I am a HUGE Google lover. I think the issue we face now is too much dominance and while I think that Google is probably better than Bing as far as results go, I will never truly know until I jump in there and try it, without looking back, for 1 month. When you are so used to something, no matter how good other things are, it is hard to make a change. Not seeing the familiar Google layout will take some getting used to, but it is the only way I am ever going to really know if I like something else.

So there it is, as of this moment, I will not use Google until July 4, 2009 in which I will post my notes/feedback on Bing.

Just found this, thought it was interesting and in support of my argument. Techcrunch found that most people prefer the layout of Bing, however, they still wont switch. Goes to show, you are really going to have something substantial to move people away from the familiarity of Google.
