I know... the business of google is Ads and user data, but if Google dont make usable and atractive your service, others can take your 1st possition as search engine.
Blah, Bing is dumb. Its like when I told my girl (Who has an EVO) that I was getting her a Windows phone for XMas, first thing out her mouth was "A Windows phone? that sounds dumb." LOL.

Take a try to https://duckduckgo.com
Not is Google, ok, but don't works bad... and uses the bing api. Seriously, try it. :-)

I totally agree.
Google must be very careful with your API, search engine and google.com site. The bing API is a lot better for developers (duckduckgo, for example) and Microsoft is improving the search engine a lot.
The google competitors are improving, and google is still better... but how many time?
My advice to google is remove a lot of unnecessary javascript, less tracking code and reduce Ads and the loading times.
