My homepage and default search engine from GOOGLE to BING. I hate pacman. I only want a good search engine. And whats this Google TV coming out? Will "everything" be Google this or that in the future? Maybe a Google watch-tv-gps-whatthefkever.

Here I come BING. (at least for today)

Yeah dude, you're seriously whining about the 30th anniversary of Pacman?

Why in the hell wouldn't you have installed the google toolbar?

Dude, I think you've gone emo. Just sayin'.

Not whining about the 30th anniversary....I am just pissed that I am being forced to observe it on my search engine.

My use of google to search with has been nothing but exemplary. This pacman crap knocks it down a quite few notches.

I dont like or use addon toolbars... don't give a rats ass about pacman...get it the fk out of my face...OK? I'm busy searching.

Geeze, I wonder when Barney's anniversary is??

I had to go and see what all the fuss was about...that's awesome. Had to play a few rounds. Doesn't come up with just the search bar.

Bing is like a dumbed down version of Google. "Decision engine" my ass. How is only displaying the top hits any better or smarter than displaying them all in order of relevance? To me, it looks more like MS is just copping out and trying to put a spin on it.

BTW, if you're hangin' out on the Google home page long enough to get annoyed that it has an interactive doohickey..... well, you're a REALLY slow surfer, dude. Enter text, hit the Search button. Takes all of 3 seconds.

Nope, the firefox search box doesn't show it, must only be the homepage.

Can't really hate them for having good ideas, so did Microsoft and look where they went.

you know what pisses me off? Those damn hover over popups. Way more than the google add campaign. Anybody know how to disable those?

I search very fast... i sometimes have a few pages open...ready for my text to be typed.

Just give me a plain jane search page. I will entertain myself on the internet, thank you very much though.

Now...if it was a Sarah Palin advertisement..... with her speaking.... it wouldn't bother me at all. LOL.

If that sheet is pissing you off so bad, just uninstall flash.
Take out java too while you're at it.

I used to roll like that when I was on a 36K modem.

What,,,ruin my whole internet experience by removing Java and Flash...um ... just so i can continue to use Google? Yea... ok.

I am finding there are plenty of others to use until Google fixes that MISTAKE:
