Google crushes Bing: Poll

It was far from a close call when the website which has been holding a series of user polls every week to establish current public trends in social media found out that Google surpassed Microsoft’s “prettier” Bing by a massively humiliating margin of 78 percent.

The figures
The figures boil down to Google’s 2180 votes to Microsoft’s 519, sending Bing spiraling down to 19 percent. Around 3 percent, that is, about 97 votes stood for a tie between the two giants.

Google fans have surely been celebrating the victory. Their loyalty to Google stands strong due to Google’s friendly and honest image. Imse4n, a loyalist, commented on the results saying, “Google is honestly trying to open up the internet, make it faster, and more useful... obviously because more clicks equals more ad revenue for them... but the means justify the ends in this case. Microsoft is just plain evil.”

Another fan Erik stated, “I become kind of disgusted when I come on Mashable some days and see, “Google has 5 new ways to speed up the web!” and then "Microsoft paying people to block their competitors". Google is miles ahead of Microsoft and Bing in so many things, and it will get even worse if Microsoft keeps halting innovation and trying to solve this with bundles of cash.”

Bad week for Microsoft, the going good for Google
The week has been horrendous for Microsoft as the third largest search engine had gone down on the Dec. 3. The error being displayed was “Internal Server Error – Read
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.”

While Bing is trying to match up to Google’s grace, the search engine giant is coming up with newer and better innovations every day. A few days ago Google Finance released their real time streaming quotes making the website more helpful to Wall Street users.

At the same time, they even announced the advent of their own dictionary at google.com/dictionary. Google has also proven to be a decisive threat to Microsoft Office, which was uncontested till now. Google Docs has arrived and is ready to be contested by Office 10.

In other popular polls, Mozilla Firefox had defeated Google Chrome by grabbing 4600 votes, as compared to Chrome’s 3310. And where Twitter v/s Facebook is concerned, Facebook was victorious with 2484 votes.
