They literally pay you to use it and its just as good if not better than Google. Seems like a no brainer to me.

Something to do with them being found copying Googles search results a few years back.. so whats the point, why not just go to Google if Bings results are basically a copy and paste?

The fact that they stole google's code is what makes it better. Google has been adding too much fuckery to their goods and services for years now.

Good point. Microsoft has never done that. *rolls eyes*

Google has a song, though...

Also, it reminds me of this video. While google gets tons of questions, here's bing... (starts around 1:45 or so)

Touche

AFAIK it hasn't affected their search engine yet though.

I like the rewards program. Got lots of things from Amazon that way.

I avoid Bing now on priniciple because they've discontinued the bird's eye view - one of my favorite Bing features - for my particular area. If they don't care for the rural folk then it goes both ways.

Ever since Google started prioritizing site popularity (and consequently who pays Google the most for SEO) over search terms, Bing has actually been better. I've been using Bing for a couple of years now and I've never gone back.

Because all Microsoft crap tries to upsell other Microsoft crap, and it's strictly worse than Google. It's bad enough that every M$ update to Windows is basically malware and bloatware that tries to change all of your file associations to M$ products, some of which it then asks you to buy.

Other than Google, the only kinda-compelling search engine is DuckDuckGo because it doesn't save your search results so you don't have to worry about your data being misused.
