Some of you might ask “Bing? What is it?”. It’s the latest, newest search engine.“But Its Not Google – BING”. Bingo! You got that right. Launched by Microsoft in the first week of June 2009, they claim it’s not just a search engine but more of a decision engine. Actually I don’t understand what that means - a “Decision Engine”? But seriously, yes, they assert that Bing is the new search cure and not just a rebranding of Microsoft Live Search. It has some new features such as instant preview of websites and videos, automatic categorization of search results, and the best match results with deep links.
Microsoft is spending about US$100million campaigning for Bing and you can watch some of the TVCs (though my personal view is that using the older TVC approach may not be the most effective channel for publicizing one’s online property) @ this youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/bing.
Anyways, so do I think Microsoft will replace Google in the search market? I doubt it, with more than 73% Internet and 93% mobile users using Google for searching online.
As Michael Arrington at TechCrunch states,"Whether Microsoft ultimately succeeds or not in 'winning' the search war, the competition is very good for the rest of the Internet. Google needs to be pushed to try innovating new things. And search marketing competition will ensure that Google doesn't get too greedy. We don't need Microsoft to win, but we do need to avoid a world with just one search engine that matters. Maybe Microsoft can win that lesser war, at least."
But, what does the consumer want? We all need the relevant search results from a trusted source. Whether that happens with Google or any other search engine, it looks like we definitely stand to benefit from the spoils of this war.

I think you all mis understood why me and Steve created this Bing. Actually during this transition phase Google has been pulling all the Microsoft employees and there was no rallying point to unite the microsoft professionals to. We know well that, Adobe / Apple is a bigger challenge in our line of business than Google.
To put it simply, its a tool for Steve to learn leadership.

I’m considering getting into the Forex market soon and am starting to do some homework. If someone could just lay out how things work and how you actually make (or lose) money, that would be nice. Also, what exactly is a pip and a lot? Thanks in advance.

I don’t believe I have seen this described in such a way before. You really have cleared this up for me. Thank you!
I’ve always had no problems with getting internet on my computer. Now I can’t connect. I’ve checked and everything is plugged in. I don’t think it is a problem with the cables because I don’t get the message “Local cable disconnected”. All the other computers in my house are working fine. I think that something is wrong with the actual computer. I had a trojan (InternetSecurity2010) before that happened, maybe that has something to do with it? I’ve tried Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari. Other odd things are happening too…after a few hours or so none of the applications will work (iTunes, microsoft word, etc) and a lot of the words start to disappear. Likeee, the start button at the bottom left corner doesn’t say start, it just is a green blob and when you click on it, it only shows the picture for each application. I’ve run spybot and malwarebytes scans and they both came up with nothing. I dont have any actual antivirus to run because I was in the middle of downloading Kaspersky Anti Virus when it happened and whenever I put in the code, it says that it can’t download because it can’t access the internet. Any ideas?
