Weird, when you go to http://www.yahoo.com , a hundred pictures got to load, even when you go to http://search.yahoo.com , some news and pictures have to load. While, http://www.google.com just has one picture and the results are better then Yahoo.

Without reading most of the thread, google did provide Yahoo with results for a brief while (before Google eventually became a major competitor and eventually a leader in search engines). I personally think google is more accurate, maybe not perfect.. but pretty accurate.

yup. I can't really do anything worthwhile in that .1 seconds or whatever, so... like everyone's said, what has the better results??? That's the one I use.

GXM Solutions had recentrly tested the speed of those 2 SE. the result was shocking: yahoo is really faster than google with 0,023 s. that is something.

As track-UK said you cannot event blink in .023 seconds.So,it is just a catchy statement made by someone to get some visibility.
But is Yahoo image search better than Google image search ?
Because I ve observed many times personally that Yahoo image search gives more relevant results.Though for general search Google is a way ahead of Yahoo.
What is your personal experience on it?

How does 0.023 make any difference?

I'd agree about yahoo image search, i seem to get better results sometimes

That number probably only works if you strip away the load time for flash banners

But seriously, Google has the edge in searching quality for websites over Yahoo, but I still prefer Clusty because it allows me to not wade through as much junk as Google would. In addition there are several other factors that would contribute to the speed, including geographic location, coding quality, and amount of content.

What about the margin of error? how big is it? If it was about +/- .05 then it whould defeat the test wouldnt it. I think this really doesnt matter, even if it was over a second. Its not like somebody is going to decide over which of the two to use just for a small .023 second delay. You also have to consider other factors such as how many results they give you, etc.
