Did anyone notice?
Probably not.. You'd have to use something to notice it's missing.
I've been using it a big recently and d'know it's quite good..

I tried it a few times, but tbh Google still gives better query returns.
Depends on what you're looking for - as always..
Utterly hooked on their maps stuff tho - gmaps has a bit of catching up to do there (albeit on implementation and search rather than image coverage).

Grief, I wonder what people did when they couldn't search for anything on the internet :/
Using Compuserve keywords....
(Thats a joke by the way)
Bing? Wait a minute, isn't that the thing that you reset to Google as soon as you start using IE???

No need to apologise. **** happens. That being said I'm a man of habit and I use Google all the time. But didn't a blind test prove that Bing results were on par if not better than Google results?... Food for though
I'll add Bing to my search box now and see how it goes
there was an outage? Never noticed... oh wait, that because I never use it!
□ΞVΞ□
eBay gave everyone 10% off for their outage a couple of weeks ago. What's MS gonna give? LOL!
