Bing (formerly Live Search, Windows Live Search, and MSN Search) is the current web search engine (advertised as a "decision engine") from Microsoft.
I was just wondering what others' views on Bing were.
Personally, I just view it as a poor copy of Google. Just a shame it doesn't bing any results.
Does anyone actually use it?

i find it good, i use it on the "main computer" because the default page is ninemsn (which is channel 9 [tv]'s home page which has news and is affiliated with msn) so thats the default search.. finds me results fine :S

I use Bing over Google now and I find that actually I get better search results and a lot more features/eye candy with Bing...
Google are falling behind with their search engine tbh..
Google is far more bang up to date with keeping things indexed updated regularly and indexing new sites. Other than that Bing is fine.

Of course Bing is going to be similar to Google, both are search engines :P
I don't mind Bing, if I have to use it I use it. My preference is Google, but that doesn't mean I dislike Bing. It's just what I've always used and know how to use.

I quite like Bing, and have tried to use it as my main search engine but I always end up going back to Google.

I use Google because they do the same thing and I can sign into Google with my GMail account.
