I will be careful with my gmail email (I don't my girl friends' messages end up in some other guy's email <g>). However, I tried Bing and, in my experience, it was not even close in getting me results compared to Google. So Google is still my friend. I was thinking of creating an account in Youtube; just so that I can save my favorite videos.
