    Bing, Google, or Yahoo?

    http://blindsearch.fejus.com/

    Welcome to BlindSearch, the search engine taste test.

    Type in a search query above, hit search then vote for the column which you believe best matches your query. The columns are randomised with every query.

    The goal of this site is simple, we want to see what happens when you remove the branding from search engines. How differently will you perceive the results?
    Surely, I'm a Google person, but I was pretty surprised by the results.
    First, I put my name, which is not that common, and word "computer" into the search (Broni+computer), and.......Bing came first, Yahoo 2nd, and Google 3rd in accuracy test.
    I have to say, I was pretty surprised.

    Next I put my first name, and my last name (very uncommon) into the search, and Bing came first again, Yahoo, and Google pretty equal, but well behind Bing.

    Interesting! I chose Google as my first choice but it was close between it and Bing...

    Dang....just to try and screw it up I searched for Google and Bing was the most logical in terms of search order, at least to my way of thinking.

    Don't really know what to make of that, now that I think of it.

    My results amazed me also with Yahoo coming in first and Google third. For my search I used the golfer Bobby Jones as the subject. Yahoo delivered the most comprehensive results followed by Bing, then Google. Strange huh.
    The true test of character is not how much we
    know how to do, but how we behave when we don't know what to do
