Google Fight

May 25, 2005

Ever used Google to know which of two words are most used, or which of two is the correct one? Or maybe just wanted to know who is more popular in the web, Britney or Aguillera?

Google Fight provides a cool interface for this sort of things. You type two search phrases and they will fight each other, the winner will be the one with the most results from Google. You actually see they fighting. Even more funny than coming up with searches is seeing what other people are using for fights. For instance, "Michael Jackson versus Justice" and "pros versus cons".

Not a new site, but still amusing. The fight itself is done by a Flash animation, but probably the processing of results is done at the server.
