Microsoft’s ‘Bing’ Search Engine Debuts, But It’s No Google | |
|
||
| Time: 14:26 EST/19:26 GMT | News Source: E-Mail | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

Microsoft’s revamped search offering — known as “Bing” — has gone live. In fact, Bing is now the default Live.com homepage. We know what you’re thinking: Does the world need another confusingly-branded search engine? But horrible name and questionable graphics aside (Hot air balloons? Seriously?) Bing actually isn’t that bad of a search engine. The problem is that Bing doesn’t really offer any compelling advantage over Google. | ||

The hot air balloons are just one of the regularly changed background images that they have been using for a long time now with Live Search. They have nothing to do with Bing specifically. As for the name, is it really that bad? Don't forget how stupid Google sounded when it was introduced, but everyone got used to it.
Personally I like it much better than Google so far, especially the video search since I can now use Youtube from a fast loading page and without all those moronic and regularly offensive comments. |
