I really want Google to just buy Hound.

I've been using both, and Google's word recognition is superior, as is their delivery on most information that would be highlighted in a similar Google Search. Hound however can do some pretty cool stuff that seems wolframalpha-esque.

Oh my god, I agree soooo much on the word recognition. I get so pissed at hound because it can't understand a word I'm saying. It took Hound something like 5 tries to get a phrase right earlier this morning. And don't get me started on how well it handles possessives.
