Google's still #1 for me. I heard about Bing and I've tried it out a few times, but honestly, it's not good enough to make me leave Google. I've found that Google search still gives more relevant search results that Bing did (using the same search terms on both engines).
The mistake Microsoft made here is that Bing didn't revolutionize search like they claimed. Instead, they've played catch-up to make Bing as good as Google. Anyone in marketing can tell you that in order to take customers away from your competitor, you have to make your product better than theirs, not just as good as. I think that's what most people think when they try Bing, that it's "just as good as Google", and if it's just as good, why switch?
