We seek to study how distinctive are\u00a0the top results presented to the users by the two search engines. \u00a0A recent eye-tracking has shown that the web searchers decide\u00a0whether to look at a document primarily based on the snippet and\u00a0secondarily on the title of the document on the web search result\u00a0page, and rarely based on the URL of the document. Given that\u00a0the snippet and title generated by different search engines for the\u00a0same document are often syntactically different, we first develop\u00a0tools appropriate for conducting this study. Our empirical evaluation using these tools shows a surprising agreement in the results\u00a0produced by the two engines for a wide variety of queries used in\u00a0our study. Thus, this study raises the open question whether it is\u00a0feasible to design a search engine that would produce results distinct from those produced by Google and Bing that the users will\u00a0find helpful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bibtex Entry:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>@inproceedings{AGP15www:study,<br \/>\ntitle={A Study of Distinctiveness in Web Results of Two Search Engines},<br \/>\nauthor={Rakesh Agrawal and Behzad Golshan and Evangelos Papalexakis},<br \/>\nbooktitle={24th\u00a0International World Wide Web Conference, Web Science Track},<br \/>\nmonth={May},<br \/>\nyear={2015},<br \/>\naddress={Florence, Italy}<br \/>\n}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our paper showing large overlap in the Google and Bing search results has been accepted for presentation in the Web Science Track\u00a0at the 24th International Conference on World Wide Web (WWW 2015). \u00a0This version supplants\u00a0Technical Report TR-2015-001.
