Out of curiosity, what made you switch from Google to Bing?

I use bing whenever I need a search that sticks closer to exact keywords instead of google's attempt to know what you want better than you do. Good for when you need to cut through SEO-ed spam that's in the vague area of the topic you're searching for, but your specific topic has a tiny number of people writing about it and they're all on low-profile sites.
Pinterest for image search (as well as being unable to just get to the damn image)

And I think Brittanica out ranking Wikipedia was the final straw for normal ad-hoc search.

Duck Duck Go ;-)
Don't forget StartPage. I use that quite a bit too.
