Google's search is bad (spammy advertising), but Bing's isn't any better. Recently at work I went to do a search for something innocuous like
"what words can you put s in front of and still have a word"
And the number 2 result was something about anal sex. I'm like WTF??? I'm at work!
How they can tout themselves as a major search engine in 2011 and not understand the concept of NSFW I do not know.

My predictions:
1) So long as Microsoft keeps throwing money at it, Bing will continue to improve.
2) So long as Google's main source of revenue is advertising, they will continue to try to find that "sweet spot" of bombarding us day and night with ads, but not quite enough to make us switch.
It's like a choice between new evil and old evil... either way that ain't a good thing.

Well, Apple seems well on their way to making their own curated internet, so don't give up all hope.
What makes you say this?
