Bing has been criticized for being slower to index websites than Google or not at all (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bing ) and for copying Google’s search engine results. Both Google and Bing have search syntax. There are numerous articles that state Google is faster than Bing and some websites that state the opposite. The undisputed fact is Google is the largest desktop search engine in the world and Bing is a far third. Google owned up to 74% of the world search engine market while Bing only has 8%. They have 63% and 23% of the US search engine market, respectively.

Alexa

All of the consumer websites and social media websites listed in the top ten of  Alexa’s Top 500 websites are Web 2.0 sites.  YouTube.com, Facebook.com, Wikipedia.org, Reddit.com, Qq.com and Taobao.com are all Web 2.0 sites. I think the factors that contributed to their popularity are the same features, functions and factors that make them Web 2.0 sites. 

Gmail

Gmail is an ad-supported email service developed by Google and launched on April 1, 2004 - over thirteen years ago.  Gmail was created with the intention of providing users with an initial storage capacity of one gigabyte per user, which made Gmail a challenger to the juggernauts AOL, Yahoo! Mail, and MSN Hotmail of the time. Gmail today offer users fifteen gigabytes for free and up to thirty terabytes for paid plans. As of July 2017 - Gmail has over 1.2 billion active users, owning twenty percent of the global email client market, and its interface supports at least 72 languages from Arabic to Zulu.

Allow Me to Introduce Myself

My name is Ivan. I am a student at the College of Southern Nevada. I will be graduating at the end of this semester with an AAS in CIT-Software-Web Development and CIT-Software Programming. I intend to further my education at UNLV. This blog is an assignment for my CIT-154B Dynamic Web Applications class. I have decided this blog should focus on

• Critiquing the courses I have taken so far
• What I've learned while attending CSN
• Topics that weren't covered by the degrees 
• What I wish I had know before hand 
• Things that I would have done differently

I welcome everyone. I hope to engage with followers, past and current students. I want to hear if they agree or disagree with my perspective and more.
