User Needs, Features and the Science behind Bing

This morning in the wee hours, we launched the Bing preview! I wanted to take this opportunity to provide some highlights and background on how Bing came to be.

 

What got us here?

Everything in Bing was driven by a focus on truly understanding searchers and their needs. When we looked at how people were using search today, we saw an opportunity to focus on three key trends: 

  • Information overload: With the explosion of digital content on the Web, it is harder than ever to find what you are looking for.

Join us June 1st @ 10am PT for the Bing Webcast

Want more Bing?  How about an interactive Webcast where we’ll walk you through all the cool features in our new decision engine.  Sure you could read the Product Guide (located here) but that would require, you know, reading.  Better just to watch.  


 


Plus, while you can talk to the Product Guide it likely won’t respond (and if it does let us know - I thought we fixed that bug).   Our webcast will let you interact with the presenter by asking questions throughout the session!


 


How do you join in the fun?  Three easy steps:

A Letter to Bing

Dear Bing (the Author),


 


We couldn’t help sit up and take notice of your offer of services from one Bing to another.  We were moderately surprised and mildly excited. As you might have guessed, today is quite a big day for us.  Even so, we dropped everything when we saw your press release this morning.  After an emergency meeting (three people were invited, all declined), we’ve decided to take you up on your offer.  We’re not certain what exactly this would involve. We’re not certain it would pay much (nothing, actually) but we look forward to starting a dialogue and hope we can work together soon.  Let’s do lunch. In the meantime we are sending you a case of moderately priced cigars.
