The name just has a certain ring to it, so I am trying Bing out. IUt also has local (South Africa) search, so it is a viable alternative to Google. It’s just that it is from….Microsoft….AAARGH

Bing might steal some market from google at this initial stage. But in the long term it will lose all, and even more if MS does not add something really innovative.

I don't see why people necessarily need a new search engine? If Google gives you the information you need then other than pure novelty why would people change. The funny thing with Bing is.. I tried to search about "what is Bing" it didnt give me a right answer so I had to head to Google to get the right answer! Not completely impressed have to say.

Too early to really tell since its just over a week, the real challenge is keeping those searchers in... In a year we should all know if Bing has really toppled Yahoo on the 2nd spot. Earrings's last blog post..Diamond Cut

[...] turn it into a verb, much as with Google. It’s received so much buzz that, at least for now, Bing has passed Yahoo as the number 2 search engine. And, Bing works pretty well, both in my informal tests and in SearchEngineLand’s more [...]

Why is there so much emotion (positive and negative) when a news story focuses on Microsoft? Let's stick with the facts and how they might or might not impact us. In what ways is Bing better or worse than Google or Yahoo? How will (or should) Bing's introduction affect marketers? Here are my newest thoughts on Bing, Yahoo!, and Google.

I have been really impressed with BING thus far...and I never liked Microsofts other search tools. Google seems slightly vulnerable to me...it is getting tougher to weed out spammy stuff when you search these days. Not sure BING will be any better in the future, but for now I think they are...

Regardless of the pathetic variances from Alexa to Compete to StatCounter and every other beyond flawed metric tracker, I really do believe that at least in the short run bing is going to grab share. So like you say Frank, it's now a 30/60/90 day wait and see thing. I'll say this though - I really do believe the hover/preview feature is innovative and will help a LOT of people make better decisions before clicking through to sites (until ppl learn how to game THAT feature of course). Combine that with $100million being thrown into ads and it was enough for me to recommend to my top clients to move 25% of their Google Ad Spend into bing for the next 90 days.

This might be a big shift. The question now is how this will affect lots of paid search budgets, as in: Does Microsoft Bing Change Paid Search?.
