Depends upon whether you prefer apples over oranges?

Are you interested in the differences between the quality of search, the quality of search referral traffic, site usability at Yahoo versus Google, ..?

I would argue that neither is better than the other.

Each works well in it's own right, depending on what you're trying to find or what your objective is.

Google works best for finding information (I have found).
Yahoo works good for shopping, etc.

In my limited experience - Google is better in getting visitors to my new site.

I also have a site that's been online since 2000 and the results are the same.

Google and Yahoo both are most popular search engines, but in compare Google is best in technique, we always gives 1 preference Google to see crawling rate and back links, but it's more difficult to compare.

Yahoo is more accurate in listing backlinks, but google has more webmaster tools.

Each has its weaknesses, but Google has a much larger following when you consider Youtube and search. Google is better than Yahoo when you condiser the numbers, but I would not leave Yahoo, in the cold, when trying to improve your traffic. Yahoo is a must when trying to run an online business if you want to maximize your chances to get a sale or traffic.

Totally agree with other. Both provide excellent service but depend on the objective. for any information one can rely on google and for shopping or other yahoo is good.

I tend to use Google almost exclusively at this point. I can usually find what I'm looking for.

Interesting, both of my younger kids use google first, then if they can't find what they want, they go to ask.com. Even though their email addresses are through Yahoo.

Should not even be a question-Google of course. That is why they hold 60+ of the search volume while yahoo is down in the 20's.

In the matter of making a research I'll go with Google, but in the matter
of games, news, entertainment and etc.. I will go to yahoo. Though I
prefer using Google, Yahoo is also good.

well All above said very well and justifies that non of them can be compared or differentiate in many cases
but what for we all are here the main target is the "Users"

and as far as i have noticed the current "Users" are more tech. filtered compare to past time so what i felt is that as per "need of change" the " user" get diverted what can satisfy it.. which probably some extend GOOGLE does wether search engine or mailing , or business wise .

So somewhere End user wise Google Rules- dat's what i feel

Default Please - help me with advice

Hello! My name is Nina.I'm very sorry for disturbing you. I'd never join your discussion with my silly question, if it was not so serious for me. But you have really nice community here, good and friendly forum, and I'll really be thankful for any your advices.The problem is what my boyfriend, Mike, ignores me. We live together for couple years and planning to marry. Now he works so hard as a lead manager, company is grown, and last monthes he comes home from his office late evening, kisses me once and very fast, and then goes to his notebook, papers, documents and seats with it until early morning. But I'm only 29, I'm not old yet, people tell me i am attractive, and surely I need some attenion from my husband. I even never dreams about expensive restaurants, luxury life and holidays at tropic islands and all around the world, I just need regular private relationship with him. When I start to kiss him, Mike only asks me not to bother him and returns to his home work.Please tell how do I need to act in such situation? I'm young pretty girl and I need his care! Am I doing something wrong? Anybody here had similar problems in past? Please, share your experience with me.

Google is the best search engine. Yahoo is just a portal with so many extras.
