Ok, the next question. Does Google have much room to improve? Are you satisfied with their product?

Google is the best ...no doubt ... but sometimes I also get what I need at MSN quicker, since MSN is quicker at indexing new sites and maybe there is some new site on same subject which is better ....I never do yahoo

Hi
The only time I use other SE's is when I see the search queries in my site stats and I click through and see where my sites are listed.

I would have to aggree also, that Google is the top dog in SE's. If you have a good ranking on Google, many people are interested in your site. Since it takes alot to get a good ranking compared to other search engines.

I really like the concept; however, ...
1. It seems that this is very resource intensive. They had a problem in the past.
2. We need more bandwidth. Client machine (desktop/notebook) needs to have faster chip and more memory; otherwise, we cannot enjoy the full benefit of this SE.

It has high quality results, but if you look at live.com...
All Microsoft has to do is fix up the results and live.com would be better than Google.

I have pretty high expectation, and I really hope that Microsoft will get some market share. What's ideal is that Google, Yahoo and Microsoft will spread the market into 3. More ideally, the market will be spread into 4 or 5 while SE like Ask.com take some market share.

Yahoo I think is out of the game. It seems like they don't have resources to fight MSN and Google. Ask.com is getting more and more popular it seems but still behind. What I like from MSN is that those who come to my sites from MSN are more likely to buy something. I get 90% of visitors from google, but guess what ! Those 5% that comes from MSN are buyers of affiliate products! That I think is important for every webmaster. That is my experience. I wonder if you track who buys products ? Would like to know very much.

Well, it's tough to judge. There are money keywords, and if you hit "money keywords", then you can make good money no matter what SE brings you the traffic.

No listen what I am saying ... they search exactly the same but people from MSN are actually buying things ! .... That I find interesting .... 5% from MSN are actualy more worthy than 90% from google. That is what I find amazing. And it is actually the same on all my sites !
