Has anybody Bung? err Binged, err used Bing yet?
I tried it today for the first time it seems quite good.
I like the side bar on the left. I may make it my full time search engine.

Inevitible for a search engine that has had the name less than 2 months At least mine was vaguely funny.... especially as google isn't google's top result when you search for "search" compared to using google to search for google.... _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

The same search for "search" in Bing gives both Yahoo and Google before itself...

I tried it after it was released, but as it couldn't find any information about the town I lived in, the town my girlfriend lives in or the next major town, I gave up again... I was looking for a Ford dealer in Bersenbrück, at the time, the best it could offer was Chicago...

The in-laws like Bing, but I don't purely because it's got a big background picture which in my opinion only serves to slow down the site.

Just had a look at it. I've noticed that google analytics is telling me there's a few people coming to our site from there. The only thing I have against it at first glance is that they've copied google, the search results look exactly the same.
