Knowledge is Power (Google vs Bing)

In this day and age, information is so readily available to anyone on the internet. Want to know how to tie a tie? Watch a step-by-step YouTube video and be ready for your big interview. Need to know who invented the segway? A quick search will yield the name in a matter of seconds. With all this information so easily attainable, one question divides the nation (more or less). By what search engine do you access the internet?

When someone asks a question, and no one knows the answer, what happens? The phrase "Google it" has become so common whenever someone needs any sort of information. This attests to the clear dominance of the search engine Google compared to Bing.

Bing uses constant advertising to "prove" it is superior when in fact, all it does is prove the opposite. Google doesn't need to advertise because it knows it is the best. Bing questions whether it is or isn't and uses advertising as a sorry attempt to sway the masses. But everyone already knows Google is superior.
