A new search tool from microsoft. I like it so far. It look a lot like google with a few features added here and there. It needs a few tweaks though. It picked up an old like from javaranch.com and the help menu on the right was referring to porn related links. Not sure how that happened. But this search engine seems to have potential, unlike cuil.
It will take 4-5 years to beat google.
No one can be the boss of internet .Boss always changes as time passes.
It happened with yahoo.After that it will happen with google.
If anyone ready to design better services .I'm ready join me.

Guess what, they banned "sex" and "sexual" search strings from Bing. here is the blog explaining. Does this happening in any other countries apart from India
In Mandarin Chinese, the official dialect of China, the syllable romanized as bing holds many meanings, with the most common being ice, frozen and sick — hardly associations one would want users to make to a dynamic and nimble search engine that seeks to challenge the global industry leader.
Web users in China often ask the question, “Have you Googled it?” If we now replace the name Google with Bing, the question would sound like the common Chinese query, “Are you sick?”
I have not found it so. "Better" will be a subjective issue for everyone.
I don't use Bing -- I don't find it any better than google, and sometimes i get some ridiculous results -- but I am glad that there's a competitor to google. Keeps everyone on their toes.

The main competitor to Google for me is rooting around on my desk. I've got pretty much the whole accumulated knowledge of Western Civilization buried under all this mess!
