BSOD on web!  Who knows, it might just happen. May be there special servers are trained to give those errors. "Search" and restart,  useful shortcut for internet surfers. But seriously, the features are great. And google is not sleeping while all this is happening. Google has regularly released so many features to its gmail and Google search. Many are hidden underneath. Ok, so how many of us here know that there is a "Show options" shown at the top of search results? It basically categories the results by: QUOTE › All results Videos Forums Reviews › Any time Recent results Past 24 hours Past week Past year › Standard results Images from the page More text › Standard view Timeline Search Results So its almost the same what the Bing does. The only thing is that Bing is graphic filled with more interactive ways and use of images for the search engine. Also the Bing's home page image changes everyday.

It isn't impossible spencer. We're talking about M$. Maybe someday they'll create "Bing SP3" ;p Maybe we also have to install WGA and other M$ Winbl0w$ fixes before we can start using this search engine's features ;p I really hope M$ seriously develop this web, not like what've they done in the past with that "longhorn" projects. BTW, does this search engine is vulnerable to virus and worm attacks? Anybody knows?

i'm a google fan too. google is not just an engine search, that's i like the most. you can get tons of feature from google  i've tried this site. looks like we still have to wait untill bing crawled websites in internet. with google, you can get lots of result, though this also mean that you have to put another keywords so that you'll exactly get what you want to. bing's search result is lesser so that may be you won't get what you search. That just an opinion. BTW, what's the differences between bing and live search? QUOTE (dougeg @ Jun 3 2009, 12:57 PM)  i am a google fan to most part but ill give a try thankyou

QUOTE (akashi @ Jun 3 2009, 09:41 AM)  what's the differences between bing and live search? Bing is a more advanced search engine than Live search. It uses better algorithm and has features to sort the results according to some specific criteria. Moreover it has better accessibility for common features and is more easy to use than Live search. In future Live search would to be replaced by Bing.

i think it's already replaced by ding. If you browse live.com, your browser will take you to ding.com it has ding map, a google map vice versa, a google-earth-like app called virtual earth 3D beta. One thing i like is, M$ doesn't lie that ding is still in beta version  Let's hope a nice surprise from M$. QUOTE (Spencer @ Jun 3 2009, 02:57 PM)  In future Live search would to be replaced by Bing.

Bing is such useless search engine can't rely on it for calculation and graph/stat stuff. I've found wolfram alpha and yauba better than bing results. Also cuil looks more with results than bing. Cuil was started by ex-googler people. They do have better indexed data than bing. Yauba is cool and i prefer it for search engines. Wolfram alpha is perfect for you if you're into scientific computing. You get almost everything with it. If you want accuracy then instead of google, try wolfram alpha for accurate maths and conversion or other calculation stuff.

I completely agree with you. That's one of the things that frustrate me about public computers with Internet Explorer. The default search is Bing, so if I need a stock quote, math problems solved or even a density of something (who knows why), it won't give a result for that. If you type any of these into Google you'll get an answer right away.

Comparing bing with google is too early i think. It is typical Microsoft bashing against google for search engine results. But point is how much they improved from the msn live ? I don't think they improved in any way. They just are at the position where they were actually with Live. Just compare the results. Google seem to be more into mining the results. While microsoft is limited with results. Also where is the file searching ? File searching and getting what you want from bing is not so easy. First it'll hardly give you any result and if it gives you then they're not what you want. Google is good at these things: File searching (pdf,doc,ppt etc). You can search for math formula, timezone and conversion of currency etc, get accurate result with that. Also not to forget stock searches. Finding people with accurate name.You can even find address of stores, service providers from google local. From google transit you can actually see and trace the distance and find more about it. Many other services of google contribute to search results in other ways. Like google base, perfect for product search. Google blog search is place for searching the blog articles. Now start comparing services and search results of google with bing ? Will bing take over google this way ? No. Also google's image search is improved after their algorithm update. They used many beta testes to check how to identify and categorize images. This data helped them to update google images results. I don't think bing stands chance to google images results. Still i would love to check what bing will offer more than google. Which it failed to offer earlier.

Yes, I would agree with that, Bing doesn't like to index more pages. It indexes only 20 percent of pages what the other search engines like Yahoo and Google do. When searching for informational, textual content there is no one better than google. Another thing I have observed is that, Bing shows more direct website domain names than specific page urls in its search results.

Bing will never take over Google. It is just false hype that Microsoft has created. My website hardly ranks in a search for the site's name (which I am in the top of every other search engine for a while now) and results come back much worse than Yahoo or Google. The algorithm has to be changed or else nobody is going to use it any more. To tell you the truth I hate Bing more than MSN, and I didn't like MSN all that much.
