    Bing

    If you watch tv I'm sure you've seen the commercials for Bing, microsoft's new search engine. Who needs that when you have google?

    anyhow, I discovered bing.com/cashback which is very cool. They also did it as live.com/cashback i believe.

    Anyhow, sign up and you get cash back for online purchases that are signed up w\ bing. Ebay purchases are 8%. You search and it shows you items that have cashback. newegg.com does 2.5%, some dell ad's are 10%+

    Bing is only good for one thing, and one thing only..... And it's not that.

    I'll have to check this out further, but already amazon.com and target.com aren't on their list of stores.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I've checked out Bing, but I don't really see what makes it any better than any other search engine. I'd really like their image search, but I hate having to view things in a smaller window within a larger one. Makes it feel claustrophobic.

    Those commercials are annoying as hell. Just one more ad I have to mute when it comes on because Goddamn those people never shut up.

    I guess bing has a couple of cool features, but I see no improvement whatsoever over the results from Live search.

    @Buffalobiian. Bing's video search is notoriously good at finding porn.

    I just tried it, and it did not return any desirable results.

    edit: I spoke too soon. Bing is great.

    your get your bing s for your butt...
    err, ummm, sorry about that one.

    I guess Microsoft does know porn importance in any web based tool...

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    i didn't know bing was good for searching porn LOL

    i haven't used it to search... just the cashback. It's especially cool if i need to buy something expensive for work, 2% ebay bucks, 8% cashback ^^

    Well I'm still not going to use it. There are better sources out there for that.

    It's just a neat feature to have.

    Microsoft chose the name Bing cause they want it to become a catchy verb, just like Google. I think we should turn Bing into a verb used for porn.

    I had nothing better to do last night, so I binged.
