Full FeedBing booming! Passes Twitter, CNN
Microsoft’s new entry in the search game Bing is still climbing the charts and now owns position #13 on the most popular websites in the US. According to Compete.com, Bing has surpassed Twitter, CNN and Digg in visitors leveraging a decent marketing campaign that combines offline and online components. Could Bing be a real player?
Maybe. David Pogue of the New York Times espouses how successful Bing is at sifting through the data to bring you what you probably are searching for. “Once you hit Enter, however, you can’t help noticing Bing’s more concerted effort to get you answers faster. To minimize the clicking, the hunting, the dead ends.” Pogue ends his comparison piece with, “if you value your time, you should give Bing a fling.” Pogue does point out that Google is ensconced in our habits and has more than enough time to respond, but respond it must.
Want to see for yourself what all the Bing hubbub is for yourself without missing your Google? Try Bing vs Google. This cool site gives you one search box but then brings you to a split screen with Bing on the left and good old Google on the right. The results are interesting and honestly have me thinking I might use this full time as it gives me the best of both worlds at the moment. It is fun and feels experimental; who doesn’t love an experiment?
Can Bing really give Google a run? Search is always in flux and this war is far from over.
