The Bing video search blows Google's video search out of the water. I always found Google video search to be somewhat clunky, but Bing's video search is like an image search with thumbnail clips no less. The image search functionality is similar for both. I like how Bing uses one long page of thumbnails, but if you click a thumbnail and go back, it takes you to the top of the list. Web search functionality is great on both, but I like Bing's layout better. The related searches are on the side instead of at the bottom; it just seems cleaner. I don't think Google should be afraid of Bing, but Bing seems to be a viable competitor, at least until Google fights back in the cat and mouse game. I do use Bing sometimes.
