According to the survey, users felt that Google was superior over Yahoo and MSN, though several commented that they frequently used all 3. Participants emphasized that they don’t like to be bothered with pop-ups and having searches pull up sites that contain spam but instead appreciate accessing quality Internet sites. Another attribute that is important to users is that the site be visually appealing and not too busy.

Thirty-three respondents preferred using MSN over the others. Many of these participants commented that they use it because they are familiar with it, since it came installed on their computer. Some people have a specific reason they like one over the other. One reader wrote, ”I love chatting with my friends.” Instant messaging options are gaining in popularity and make it easy to communicate instantly with family and friends. Setting up a homepage provides access to daily stock quotes, news and entertainment information. There are many other popular features that provide users with options right at their fingertips.

Yahoo was reported as the favorite search engine for 108 of the 266 polled. The capability of using email and setting up a homepage attracts many people to a particular program. Offering free email gets attention along with the capability of customizing a homepage by changing layout columns, and colors. For some users, old habits are hard to break. People often will go to the one program they know how to use over trying a new one, especially if it has performed well for them in the past. Several users couldn’t quite articulate why they use a specific engine, except to say, ”I just like it.”
