Is it possible to almost "force" a new search engine on people like Bing is trying to do? I have tried it out a number of times, and though I won't say its any worse than Google, there is nothing that really stands out about it. So is a bunch of fancy commercials and well placed ads online (see <a href="http://NYTimes.com" rel="nofollow">NYTimes.com</a>) going to change what we use to search? I don't think so.
