Bing: Microsoft's new Search Engine ("Decision Engine")

[brad jones]

Microsoft gives out more information on their upcoming search engine now called Bing. Dubbed as a "decision engine," Microsoft categorizes results as well as has integrated additional information into results page for various types of searches. You'll be able to shop, find hotels, look for travel options, and do much more in a way that is more conducive to getting to the decisions you need to make quicker.
Of course, the best way today to see what Bing will do is to check out the short video (marketing video) that Microsoft has created at http://www.bing.com. You can also wait until June 3rd, when it is expected to go live.It will be interesting to see if Bing does enough to make any inroads to the Google mind presence. It doesn’t seem like Live Search is doing it…

"You'll be able to shop, find hotels, look for travel options, and do much more in a way that is more conducive to getting to the decisions you need to make quicker." -- that's something I haven't seen demonstrated yet.... I've seen the commercials, I've "used" Bing (it quietly replaced the Live Search that I had going on) ... but I haven't seen HOW it'll help me make smarter decisions.... time will tell.
