When I enter "1+1" into Google, I expect back "2", not a link to a calculator website. When I enter a street address, I want the first result to be a map, not a link to a mapping website. When I enter a stock symbol, I want the current stock price at the top of the results, not a link to a slow loading website.
Google has had these smart search results since day one and the functionality keeps expanding much to the displeasure of some companies. One could argue that this is an example of Google "favouring" its own services, but as a consumer, that's what I expect and that's why I keep using Google! I don't want links, I want answers. Bing likes to talk about being a "decision engines", but Google did it first.
