Bing is more interested in selling rocking chairs than actually searching.

Bing's "Bird's Eye" view function in maps used to be amazing until they screwed it up. It used to be a manual thing you switched on once you got in close enough, but now it's supposed to be automatic. It doesn't work, half the time it goes to a blank screen where you would have got an image under the previous system. Still, when you make it work it's amazing.

Otherwise, I use google.

Bing is garbage compared to Google. The set up is terrible and isn't as fine tuned as the big G

A lot of hate for Bing here! And not just hate, but vicious hatred. I expected Google to win the poll. I was more curious about people's opinion on Bing and figured I'd throw a poll in for the heck of it.

Why the hatred for Bing? I'm not seeing much for actual reasons why people hate Bing. Is there a reason or is everyone just used to "Googling"?

yeah, kinda surprised about the venom as well. I'm guessing some have an irrational hatred of Microsoft for some reason

I don't like MS because they nickel and dime you for everything, charge for stuff that should be free, terrible customer service, copy products from other companies blatantly, and bad hardware in my experiences.
