mine came up with YAHOO, but it wasn't an every day search, i was actually surprized that any search engine found it. And I don't care how powerful Yahoo is, all those bloody banners all over the place! sick, shouldn't need to look at banners when i'm searching... that's the main reason why i use google

My personal favorite search engine is that shiny metal can behind my house if you ask me.

Er, no I'm not a Racoon.

keeps coming up as google which is best - which is a shame as I find google (and other) search results to be less and less relevant nowadays and was hoping to fina a search engine not prone to people spamming affiliate ads, pop ups spyware etc. Oh well!

I picked Yahoo, but all three had very similar results.

I typed in "Cubic Zirconium" just because I thought it would be an easyone... what suprised me was the fact that only google lead me to the science sites, MSN and Yahoo sent me to stores...

I think I will do a test, I'll go to the mall and ask women if they would like to have some cubic zirconium, and see how many are familiar with the term. Honestly, if I want to BUY fake jewerly I would type in fake jewerly.

The tests are a little screwed up, MSN keeps coming up with "array"
