Yeah, what struck me was that if style was your differentiator for using Google versus Bing, you just lost your motivation to stick with Google.

Some examples:

Bing's style: http://www.bing.com/search?q=mortgage

New Google style: http://www.google.com/search?q=mortgage

Compare to the old google look: http://www.darrinward.com/img/articles/screenshot-google-sea...

Excellent post. I had no idea how similar the Bing and Google result pages are now. What is up with that? It couldn't have been unintentional, could it?
