Re: Why Did Alta Vista Search Engine Lose To Google?

I do remember when Alta Vista was the mac daddy. But not sure that they quite had the same interface and colors of google. If I recall correctly, main difference was that google gave you a result more quickly, and due to the fact that it was mostly text (especially in the beginning) the pages would load up super fast, even with dial up. I also recall that google had a lot less ads in their searches, so you would actually find the info that you really needed more reliably than alta vista.
