hey John,
“Catching politicians in their lies…”
Isn’t that about as hard as shooting fish in a barrel? 🙂

I don’t see much traffic from Bing, but I still think it’s worth considering, though I’m pretty sure anything that is done for the benefit of the big G will benefit one with Bing also.
In any event, diversity is always a good thing, or as another old saying goes, it’s best not to put all your eggs in one basket (i.e. google). 🙂

Yo,

I kinda like it but only because I’ve always liked searching within specific timeframes. Its great for catching politicians in their lies 🙂

I guess I have no idea how Bing does any of its ranking and what kind of links it considers. Maybe its just about time for me to start putting some thought in to the traffic those sources can offer!

hey John,
I don’t really like the “new” google look (am I on google or bing? 🙂 ), and I think it’s a bit of a gamble for them. But then again, I don’t like change… so who am I to say?
I think it’s good that google is feeling a bit of heat from bing. Competition is a good thing!
Last thing, you mentioned yahoo and bing ignore nofollow. I agree that’s the case for yahoo, but from what I’ve seen bing treats nofollow links like google… bing ignores them. Do you know different on this?
