Even if Bing is much better than Live.com it still has a long way to go to beat google in the general search results. But features like the flight search engine might help to beat the competition.

it’s really a worry how they change things up.

Well, that’s the thing; why should it worry us when we can use something else? I’ve been at Yahoo for months too; didn’t have the “good feel vibe” I wanted. Nice tools though.

Andrea; no, I don’t judge all of Bing by this one error. And I “out it”, blog it, simply because, well, I work in this space and this gives me a breaking story 🙂 Had it been software I would have filed a bug report somewhere.

I like using ChaCha for short factual questions like this. It is funny that Bing didn’t do some quality checks on this, though.

I would hope you won’t judge a search engine just for parallelized service it can offers.

Hahahaha, hilarious. I can only imagine that once Bing can leverage all of the search technology that Yahoo has/had, that they will have a pretty darn good search engine that will definitely compete with Google.

Google had better get off of their backside and start rolling out better results. Local search is all over the place, and usually it pops up on queries that are obviously not a local type query. When I type “pizza” into Google I want to see local results, duh! And when I type “power outage in Carlsbad Ca” I want to see real time results.

I do love the Google language tool. We have so much SEO invested in Google – it’s really a worry how they change things up.
