Bing’s photos of the day are beautiful or at least well done. I like that. I can remember what I wanted to search for without problem, as well.

BING is in its infancy, give it a chance.

Bing is simply a new label slapped onto an old product by Microsoft's marketdroids getting set for a renewed ad campaign. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1lQwrQbvuM

In fact, I happened to be researching some business locations at the time. I was flipping back and forth between Google Maps and Live (now Bing) Maps. (Google has street view. Bing has bird's eye. They tend to have different levels of map and photo quality for different locations.) I hardly noticed when the new bing logo began to appear. I just thought it was an ad, to be ignored. I didn't find out about the switch until I saw a news story.
