Bing – Microsoft Search goes live!

We have Bing Off…

We all know Microsoft wants to be Google, it wants to be Google really bad!. Bing.com  is a real effort by Microsoft’s search engine people – an effort to be seen as an reliable alternative (wannabe replacement) to Google’s search engine.

Will people be saying “Bing it” instead of  “Google it” unlikely, but it is nice to think that someone is trying to give Google a run for their money.

It still needs some work, and is by no means a finished product. I do find it funny that when you search for bing on bing.com the results do not include Bing.com website! But when you search for google on google.com – you know where I am going with this…. right?
