Bing

Anyone tried it?

Like it?

My early impressions are it's very good and brings back results comparable, if not better, than Google.

I like when you hover over a result it displays a little snapshot of text from the resulting page.

I'll try it for a few weeks and see how it compares.

Go to Bing. Do an image search. Search for "I hate everything" without the quotes. Scroll down the page.

Not safe for work, kids or anyone really.

Curiosity got the better of me and made me look at that right before my dinner.

Not saying that Microsoft is up to anything too dodgy, but every 20-30 goes at entering a URL into Internet Explorer it mysteriously jumps to bing ....

(and the URL is correct)

Strange.
