MSN vs Google - Fun & Games in Search Begin
Thread Title:
The Return Of More Evil Than Satan
The Return Of More Evil Than Satan
Thread Description:
Danny Sullivan reports at the SEW Blog that a search for more evil than satan at MSN brings up Google as numero uno ;)
A return favor for what came up on Google for that phrase in 1999? (MS of course..) Is this the beginnings of a fun "tit for tat" game or just a bit of random silliness?
Whatever it is, it made me smile, thanks danny!

Love it.
this almost works
miserable failure
“miserable failure” no longer brings up the Whitehouse as 1st but does on Yahoo and google
Not a silly one but an interesting one all the same, search for news on temoa, yahoo, and google, and CNN is the 1st result, now try the Microsoft beta and you have a blog – CNN doesn’t make the top 40(someone at CNN upset Bill)
alpha release?
Seems MS haven’t quite got the hang of clustering either, search for sex brings up the same page for 1st and 2nd
What site would you expect to come top for music? Probably several candidates, but the likes of MTV, allmusic.com, vh1, mp3.com don’t appear in the top 30 of msn beta.
Same with movies, and many others, in fact the only popular search term i’ve seen bring up anywhere near the expected results was a search for Microsoft
Should this still be an alpha release? i shouldn’t complain too much my own sites are doing extremely well –not sure what that says about my sites :)
