http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/353497/micr ... off-googleOK, first of all, Joe Average has probably never heard of Bing... actually that alone is enough reason for this to be a really bad idea Oh, and what do Sky News use in their stories when describing a location? Google Maps...

I'm sure a lot of people would pay news coproation for the same thing, in fact I suspect more people would pay to avoid the results than to see them.

Who is Jason Calacanis, I tried to bing him, but didn't get any results, just a bunch of right wing biased news stories.

He ran several start-ups, including Silicon Alley Insider and his current start-up Maholo, a "human" search engine...
He is a very outspoken, sometimes obnoxious, but generally funny and interesting character. He does several podcasts and videostreams, including Leo LaPorte's TWiT network and his own show "This Week in Startups".
