www.bing.com with maps and travel informations
search enginebingsearchingsearchMicrosoft's entry into the field of online search engines, www.bing.com,
is a well-designed tool to bring the contents of the internet quickly
and easily to one's fingertips. Bing offers traditional word searches,
but it is also packed with additional features that make it well worth
exploring. Landing on the bing.com home page, the explorer will find specialized
search buttons lined upon along the left-hand side, letting the searcher
specify "images, videos, shopping, news, maps, travel." These are in
addition to the more traditional "type it in" search bar. When results
appear, it is easy to preview them through Bing's preview function,
rather than having to go directly to the search result site. Microsoft
is also featuring a new form of visual searches - for example, click on
an image labeled "yoga poses" and instantly dozens of pictures of yoga
poses appear.
One of Bing's key attractions is its cash back program. Dozens of
stores and retailers offer significant discounts in partnership with
Bing. These discounts are not mere pennies but can climb as high as 35%.
In addition, the site has spectacular maps, which offer panoramic views
of locations everywhere. That special treatment is especially
impressive for viewing venues like the World Cup soccer match sites in
Africa.
Bing's primary focus is on providing basic information very quickly and
on allowing new, unique forms of searching. Those characteristics set
it apart from Google and others. New capacities and new features will
continue to be added and the www.bing.com will continue to grow in
popularity. Bing's ease of use and innovations have already made it many
users' favorite.
