Bing is real surprise !!! I never imagined MS will build something so great, so innovative, so different…

Bing is really cool with every feature it has right from the first page photo – even though certain websites are proudly making 20 Billions from a text box and a button, as Ballmer says there is lot more to do in search.

Bing homepage displays different photo everyday and also you can see all previous ones. It has got real cool set of photos and they don’t even take time to load. Not just that but every photo would include information with video links about the place.

If you would like to have Bing Homepage photo set and updated everyday as your Windows 7 desktop wallpaper, Click Here. It is really very simple and quick to create your “bing theme”.

Search results are very relavent and you get relavent links and sections - if you search place name, you would get left hand links with Tourism, Weather, Maps and Restaurant. If you search person, you would get personal links like Books, Accomplishments, Facts etc. You search university, you would get Admissions, Alumni etc.

As said it is real “Decision Engine”. Really something beyond conventional search.

Coolest feature i loved is if you search video – within search result you just take your mouse over it and it will start playing automatically within search result page – no matter it is from Youtube or any other video site.

Reviews all over web also are great and this is definitely start of new “era” in search engines.

Next time you need something, Just “Bing” it..

Note: I assume most of features are only availble on US website of Bing, so don’t forget to change Country from Top Right Menu to United States.
