Microsoft Launches New Search Engine called BING

This new search engine – BING is available to American users from today, 3 June 2009, and UK users should have access to a beta version.

The new search engine has a number of innovative features, the main one being what Microsoft calls the Explorer pane on the left hand side. When you search for things, the Explorer pane finds results for related searches. This should be a big help for less experienced searches who aren’t adept at querying search engines.

Bing.com looks very different from Google, with a picture on its home page that will be updated daily, and the site also suggests more specific refinements to users’ queries. Once results have been displayed, a column on the left hand side suggests further related searches.
