Has anyone actually taken a hard look at Bing? I get that it has interesting bells and whistles, but I think the search results are incredibly naive.
For example, when I search for my company I get 7 pages of results that are pages I host. Then finally at the end of page seven there are links to our TechCrunch and TradeVibes pages. I think having some diversity of results is important.
- trezor 17y agoI'm using it as my default search engine and has done so since the official launch. It was pretty much just a "lets try this thing out" kinda experiment. So far I have seen no reason to switch back to google. Short summary: My opinion on bing * For regular searches, it does the job * For image searches it is infinite better than google * For video searches there is no way I'm going back to google unlees they catch up So just like you need a compelling reason to switch away from google, I need a compelling reason to switch back.

- madh 17y agoYour comment made me try out Bing for image and video searches. Recently I've been searching for videos quite often on Google, and most of the time, I've been disappointed. Bing is nice. I particularly like being able to easily select the source. A quick Bing success story: I was showing Bing to a cousin from abroad who was debating going to Vancouver. The Bing background image was The Sunken Garden at Butchart Gardens in Victoria. Great coincidence.
