Microsoft Bing – Funny…But A Contender?
-
Microsoft Bing has a sense of humor.
Watch this, and tell me this type of situation hasn’t happened to you during a search:

But the question is – can they really challenge Google?
You can compare the two search engines here {link}.

Tophahah yeah seriously! That’s a great commercial though for sure and I wonder if they can compete with google. I would doubt it, but I have seen a lot of advertising for bing as of lately. Guess only time will tell!

TopI’m doubting that Microsoft can really catch up to Google at this point. Google has such a huge head start over them that the simple brand name power should propel them. I love the link to compare the two! Thanks!

TopI personally like Google’s search just fine, and i think Bing’s way of promoting their new site is a little off par.
Sure if you type in some random words in a search engine, you’re going to get random results. But if you type specifically what you’re looking for… at least for me personally, I’ve always gotten good results from Google, and been able to find what I was looking for.

TopIt reminds me of the ol’ MMO debate. It probably won’t replace Google, but then again maybe it doesn’t have to. I can see there being a place for both. Advertising can, however, do amazing things!

TopI personally believe Google does not requires any introduction or praise. Google has such a huge head start over them that the simple brand name power. By the way the add is very funny and attracting.

Top@It is a funny ad – totally agree.
@Emily – I’m not sure there is a bunch of hype. In fact, many folks share your opinion that Google is king [and should stay that way], and nobody can touch them.

TopI think bing is doing a great thing by challenging Google and encouraging them to improve their search engine. Competition is a good thing because it makes things better for the user- me.

Top@nithya – that’s an opinion shared by many. But…have you been drinking?
@Cangel – so true! We are often the beneficiaries of heated corporate competition.
@pmacaodha – ironic, eh? Bing is getting the word out via YouTube.

TopIt is very difficult at this point of time to judge which search is better,but one thing is clear Microsoft has always been manage to hold its position in the market. Microsoft joining hands with yahoo can do anything!
We people do have very short memory….How can we forget past when powerful ‘Netscape’ browser was ‘Deleted’ from internet world by Microsoft’s Newly develop ‘Internet explorer.’

TopPersonally, I kind of hate those commercials. At first, I didn’t even pay attention to them because they were so annoying so I didn’t even know what they were for. But, a little healthy competition is a good thing, and maybe google, and everybody doing searches on the web, will learn something thanks to the ‘new kid on the block’.

TopI’ve enjoyed the Bing commercials – I find them cute, but not annoying. However, ever since Bing became linked to my MSN home page, I have to wait a second or two extra to type the address of wherever I might want to go – why? Because my cursor is automatically redirected to the Bing search box! It’s very annoying – I type the address, hit enter, and then I’m looking at the Bing search results page instead of the site I wanted. Results-wise, I still prefer Google – I can’t see enough of a difference or improvement in the Bing results.

TopThe problem is that Google is so entrenched in the Internet-search culture that it’s going to take more than some funny commercials to get people to switch.

Top@will – yup, Microsoft has a laaawwwnnngggg way to go.
@connie – thanks for your opinion. What did you find annoying about them?
I’m not a huge fan of bing – I’m just a fan of competition. But I’m curious what the commercials did to inspire your reaction.

TopI thought it was a clever commercial. Far more clever than anything they have come up with in the past. However, it will take more than a funny commercial to sway people from a trusted search engine like google.

TopA neat and needed solution but can it really be better than what’s out there. Heck, I find most people give incorrect responses when you ask them questions. Can a computer program do better since it’s written by humans. Maybe we need to have a computer write the program so it will focus on what you are asking and not themselves.

TopThis commercial is really good. However, I personally feel bing cannot beat Google. Google is getting better day by day. Also, it gives more relevant results than bing.

TopOne of the most powerful advantages of Bing is the video search and the quick previews that are shown. Though this has unleashed ‘thumbnail porn’ upon the world’, it is a very versatile feature. If Bing can extend their search parameters to more areas like image matching, then they will overtake Google in no time.

TopI love the commercials, but don’t understand Bing, when I compare the two I’m not feeling like they are much different, but that may be because I’m not desparately looking for something. That is when Google gets on my nerves.

TopBing is a very interesting idea. It would help people out that are under a time restraint and need to find relevant information quickly. But to say that they are better then other search engines, like Yahoo and Google is a bit going over what is logical. Google and Yahoo and any other major search engine has been around for longer and is more known, even with the commercials of Bing. And at times it also is helpful because it\’s a crawler search and it makes sure to find the websites that are most visited that consist of the words that you\’re searching. Though there are times that you do get results that have nothing to do with what you were looking for in the first place.

TopI really did not get this commercial the first time. I thought it was some kind of a goofy product. My husband and I just looked at each other and said what was that. Anyway, Google is too big for a competition.

TopI have learned quite a few important things through your post. I will also like to express that there can be situation that you will apply for a loan and do not need a cosigner such as a Government Student Aid Loan. But if you are getting credit through a standard creditor then you need to be able to have a co-signer ready to make it easier for you. The lenders are going to base any decision using a few elements but the greatest will be your credit worthiness. There are some creditors that will furthermore look at your job history and determine based on that but in many cases it will hinge on your report.
