Search and Destroy

Fun with Googlefight

It’s not whether you win or lose. It’s how you play the game.

Whatever, Gandhi. Everyone knows competition is the fuel that keeps the wheels of life turning.

So why let the claw-your-way-to-the-top fun stop with the corporate ladder and reality TV? Googlefight, a fun search-engine game, lets you pit any two search criteria against each other, in order to see which one yields more results. Enter any two duelers — mom vs. dad, boxers vs. briefs, People vs. Larry Flynt — and watch them duke it out.

Popular rivalries include George W. Bush vs. Osama bin Laden (political!), McDonald’s vs. Burger King (culinary!), and Googlefight vs. Googlewhack (self-referential!). Who wins these legendary showdowns? Find out for yourself — though we will tell you that the Almighty kicks Satan’s butt by a long shot.

See? Even God likes a good fight.
