Mike, don't think I'll stop using google for that other search engine you mentioned just yet - try a direct comparison and google returns 100-1000 times as many results. It does though show how easy it will be when somebody does create a better search engine. A few links here and there, then it'll spread through the net and the offices etc and in a few weeks 50% of users will have switched. Exactly how google got going in the first place. Unless they can come up with services that lock people in like email but don't see that Gmail has taken off yet?
