A couple questions: 1) Do you click the sponsored links in search results? 2) Do you run adblock? Maybe you and I (and anyone else reading this board) are not the target market for Bing. I don't watch Wheel of Fortune either, but that seems to have a strong market. The less links/buttons on a page to confuse my mother the more likely I'll send her to that page. As long as she can easily find what she is looking for (and is less likely to install another browser toolbar) Here are some searches that worked perfectly fine for me in Bing and didn't need any sidebar filters: http://www.bing.com/search?q=celtics+score http://www.bing.com/search?q=celtics+score (shows the box score) http://www.bing.com/search?q=newton%2C+ma+taxi http://www.bing.com/search?q=newton%2C+ma+taxi (same map/list of taxi companies as google) http://www.bing.com/search?q=who+won+american+idol http://www.bing.com/search?q=who+won+american+idol (I think Bing has better results than Google for this) http://www.bing.com/search?q=movie+times http://www.bing.com/search?q=movie+times (fandango outranked Bing's list of movies, while Google puts their list ahead of all search results)
