After playing around with Bing, I felt that Bing is a bit more intelligent than Google. Though the search results are pretty much comparable, so much thought has been put into the presentation and navigation.
Besides the basic Search, Bing comes with some great features. Here are some cool stuffs worth trying out.
Will Bing Change the way you Search?

Bing Sounds Promising…
So far, Bing looks like a Google killer. Anyway, after a series of setbacks with crappy Windows Vista and a bunch of useless software’s, Microsoft must be glad with their new product. Finally, persistence pays off!
