Micros--t Bing - for Bing-a-lings

Micros--t has a new search engine – Bing. All the rage for the past few days in the Blogosphere.

I guess I’m a sucker for trying stuff out, but I figured I’d give Bing a chance in comparison to the tried and true Google.

I wanted to find an online copy that I knew existed of an old out-of-print book titled “The Black Hills Trails” by Jesse Brown and A. M. Willard. I searched for ‘black hills trails brown willard’ in Bing, and the first 10 results returned 0 - as in Zero (coincidentally the quality level of Microsoft products)- items that had anything to do with this book.

I entered the same search in Google, and 10 out of 10 of the first page of results were in reference to this book.

Now I’m certain that results may vary based on the specific search terms and context, however 0% vs 100% is enough for me to make my choice of a search provider. At least I didn’t lose hours of time like I have with the other Micocrap products.

Now Micros--t can offer pathetic search to complement their pathetic OS products.
