I notice that Bing now has FR links not long after we post.. this thread for example can be found on Bing.

I had tried to find FR threads months ago but Bing just didn't have it; google has long had FR updates within minutes.

Another plus for Bing.

Goo-, goo-, google good-bye. This time I mean it. It looks like Bing can match you on most features.

Bing always has great patriotic backgrounds for national holidays.

Would you chose a car dealership based on the color of the building's trim?

If that competing dealer was actively working to spread islam around the globe like google has, yes.

Did you see Bing’s search page yesterday?

What a hoot! (and a great slap at Google!)

Hi again! I’m sorry it took so long to write back. Believe it or not, I was able to see the expressions move on the Easter Island statues. I LOVED it!

I wanted to ask you a question. Re: the diver in the grotto. Does the image actually move [i.e.: I’m thinking the bubbles & fish, primarily], or is it just a matter of being able to pan around the grotto & see it from all angles?

I looked at it through Google Chrome, as you suggested, & while the image itself didn’t move, I was able to pan around the entire grotto. It was amazing!

Thanks for your help!

That is exactly the way I saw it! It was a moving panorama, but not animated. I'm glad you saw it too, I didn't want to think I was hallucinating! LOL!

To think you had the right solution straight out of the gate—using Chrome. For some reason I didn’t try it then, but I tried it today. I’m so glad you brought the grotto pic to my attention. I really enjoyed seeing it from so many different angles. I like the mist over the lake today also. Very evocative.

Thanks again!
