exactly...

unquoted name in google produces less, but more relevant, results than in bing. perhaps google assumes two non-dictionary words next to each other represents a name and so looks for groupings in search page results.


interestingly, earlier today my "quoted name" in google produced very few results (6) but a few hours later i get 1000-odd (obviously not all me but quite a few).

earlier, all of the references to scientific papers was missing but they are back...hmmm...

you cannot trust search engines...


i quite like bing's interface and font.
