- Google, MSN SearchGoogle now has sponsored links that show up at the top of the search results list, the way most other search engines do.<br>
<br>
As a result, on my computer (meaning, my screen size and browser and
font settings and all that), doing a search on Google results in me
being able to see the same number of search results as doing the same
search on MSN (7).<br>
<br>
Google's layout looks cleaner, to the point that it's quite surprising
that you see the same number of results on both, but space-wise, the
results start at almost exactly the same place as the MSN Search
results.<br>
<br>
Of course search result quality is another thing. The search I
did, "cd burning", gave me Nero as the top result on Google, while Nero
wasn't even on the first page in the MSN Search results. In my opinion,
Nero should be #1, so Google got it right.<br>
