Bing (search engine)

Bing (formerly Live Search, Windows Live Search, and MSN Search) is a web search engine (advertised as a "decision" engine [1]), Microsoft's current incarnation of its search technology. Unveiled by Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer on May 28, 2009 at the All Things Digital conference in San Diego, Bing is a replacement for Live Search. It went fully online on June 3, 2009,[2] with a preview version released on June 1, 2009. In its first few weeks Bing has been successful in gaining some marketshare.

Notable changes include the listing of search suggestions in real time as queries are entered, and a list of related searches (called "Explorer pane" on the left side of search results), based on semantic technology from PowerSet[4] which Microsoft purchased in 2008.[5] Bing also includes the ability to Save & Share search histories via Windows Live SkyDrive, Facebook, and email.
