MSN/Bing
Well, MSN sucked. I hated it. However, Bing is showing much more promise. I'll have to play around with it some more, but I like it so far. The results are much more specific and relevant. MSN - 5/10 and Bing - 9/10.
Dogpile.com
I like this one from all the smaller search engines. It sort of steals from all the search engines and gets their results. You end up with a unique hybrid that comes up with decent searches. It isn't flashy and really offers no special features. However, it's definitely worth playing around with for a few minutes of your time. 6/10
Ask.com Review
Formerly askjeeves.com. They offer an even smaller selection of search results than Yahoo. And whether or not you ask your search in the form of a question is irrelevant. It's pointless. You won't see anymore specific results from this. Ask also doesn't have anything else going for it unlike Yahoo. Really, unless you're just bored and wanna use a different search engine, ask.com sucks. 4/10
Yahoo Review
Yahoo is like an alcoholic version of Google. They've killed a few brain cells and don't possess as much information. You'll find the searches come up with fewer results and you can forget trying to look up anything obscure.
Yahoo still has the best IM around. Their mail is clogged with spam from my experience, but they are the best when it comes to fantasy football. Yahoo isn't all about being a search engine like Google is. They do excel across the board though. 7/10

Google Review
Overall, Google is a great search engine. It's fast and gives you good results most of the time. Adsense helps website owners make a little extra money as well. The only problem I see is that sometimes you run into a situation where you are looking for something obscure and the regular search won't cut it. Then, you must use the exact search by either going under advance search or using quotation marks. This can get tedious and annoying.
You won't find a better image or video selection anywhere and you can filter it as well. Bottom line: 9/10.
