Bing is at the top.

And they have a photo to prove it!

Microsoft employee Kunal Das recently traveled to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro – the world’s highest free-standing mountain – and left a Bing sticker at the top (see it on the sign right after “Africa’s Highest Point”).

Unfortunately for Bing though, Google is still the king of the search engine mountain with 64.7% of core searches according to comScore’s July 2009 US. Search Engine rankings report. The good news for Bing is that the new and improved search engine did continue its upward trend with an increase of 5% for it’s number of searches. It’s just going to be a long trek to try to dethrone Google!

Bing does give search results much like Google but i would have to say that Google still gives more relevant search results

i have been using the BING search engine for a couple of weeks. Bing seems to be as good as Google but for some reason i would still want to stick with Google search engine ,-

Bing definitely has its work cut out for it trying to change Google behavior! Thanks for stopping by Jimmy.
