Well like the browser wars that current going with MS, FF, Opera the search engines wars have been going on longer since the days of AOL. But I would say hte reason it takes google longer to index is that they are looking for content and links through use of keywords, while MSN just uses keywords. But I assuming since I don't know the inner workings of hte search engines ad most likely those are closely guarded secrets as to how it's actually done.

msn could take over google if they compare their results with google and then see what is the difference. the new live search is well presented with fantastic graphics but google is simple but give fantastic results. microsoft has to overcome this problem. i think personally think that if google and msn collaborate, they will make fantastic search engine with well graphics and give reliable and desired results

msn sbetter n it lll think so

I personally think that Google will stay the number one fansite.
Simply because everyone uses it & I dont think they will change!

I am starting to think it will be taken over. Look at all the people that use ''@hotmail.com" e-mail adresses if they all started using MSN google would be gorne!
