Bing It On

Personally I am a Google user.  I almost never do searches with Bing.  I came across this site, bingiton.com which is clearly sponsored by Bing.  I went ahead and did the challenge.  You enter five searches and you select the results that you like best - you can't see which list is from Google and which is from Bing.  I chose five random topics and when I was done it turned out that I had chosen Google 3 out of the 5 times.  It appears the site is being honest about what people are choosing.  It did mention however that in blind tests nearly 2 to 1 people choose Bing . . .   guess I'm in the minority!  Give the challenge a try to see which search engine you prefer.
