This is a big week for Microsoft, with the release of its brand new search engine, called Bing. What? isn’t Google enough?? Well, here’s what Microsoft says in its press release….The way the world searches is changing. You want more than just information. You want knowledge that leads to action. The truth is you’ve evolved. It’s time search caught up. We took a new approach to go beyond search to build what we call a decision engine.
Among Bing’s features ….
- Fast searching
- Clean look
- Left-hand navigation, with the kind of look and feel that we’ve seen in Endeca catalogs
- Quick Preview: text-based synopsis of the pages search results. Drag you cursor over individual search results, and up pops additional relevant information!
- Video mouse-over. In a word: amazing!
- Cashback program
- Location sensing
- Instant Answers, which serves up answers to questions such as currency conversion, weather forecasts, and movie items
