They are so trying to make people say "bing it" (google it).

Re: Bing.com

Read this the other day and straight away I hated it. Simple reason is it sounds so much like Bling and I cant stand that word. Might be a hit with the youngsters but I dont think the older generations will like it. Thats just my opinion of course.

Also google is my homepage and I like it. Simple and fast loading. Not full of junk all the time. I just cant amagine having Bing as my homepage lol would make me hate using the net.

Don't know why Microsoft feels the need to dominate every aspect of technology.

I wonder if we'll be greeted with a rendition of "White Christmas" when we land on Bing's search page....?

Microsoft will never catch Google. Even if they make a super duper one, everyone uses Google, and its now become a noun. (google it)

Re: Bing.com

The video search/preview on rollover and image search are nice in Bing and the interface is nice too..but..MS are bound to mess it up later.
