When Do You Plant Spaghetti Seeds

The Board of prof. Alfonso Bing as an alternative to Google

"Bing", as we light up the "spin doctors" of Wikipedia, is an onomatopoeic word that if one side wants to imitate the sound of a switch that turns on, that's when you make a choice or discovery (in the comics just indicated by the appearance of a light bulb that lights up), on the other hand also aims at exploiting the similarity with the word "Bingo!" used when something is found, as in its game of Bingo.

The name was chosen by Microsoft as it is:
  • short
  • easy to pronounce and remember,
  • URL link in an ideal world.
Then there are the ironic version that Bing wants to derive the name from the phrase "But Is Not Google."

Let 's history: Bing is the search engine was born from the ashes of Microsoft Live Search in June 2009 (the first version officially entered service on June 3, 2009). The objective of

Bing is to compete with the giant Google as Live Search in his last year of life was used on average to 6% of global research, very little compared with 67% of Google and over 22% of Yahoo! .

Bing The secret is in artificial intelligence based on logical analysis inspired by the Italian grammar. Therefore, for this new search engine, unlike Google , are also relevant prepositions and articles.

Currently only the U.S. version is final, those other countries are still in beta. A peculiarity of

Bing is the presence of a background image that changes every day. Microsoft has recently entered the home page two arrow buttons (left and right), which allow you to view up to a maximum of nine images of previous backgrounds.

To stay on the subject of images, from the "user side" the research is much more comfortable than that of Google : As you scroll the page, new images appear, loaded at the time, no need to click on number of pages.

The American version (final) also allows searching for video.

Research Maps then calculates a travel itinerary, displaying 3D maps, satellite or aerial view . Like Google
there is also the Webmaster Center, which is useful to check the indexing status of your website. It is currently present only in the final version of Bing, but access still looking Bing Webmaster Center. Bing offers

Finally, even in the Italian version, the possibility of direct access from its home page to MSN and Hotmail inbox. In the Italian version

Here 's the list :
  • Search Web Images Shopping
  • News
  • xRank maps (to discover what is being sought other users)
  • Translator
The English version offers many services in addition to the above, including: Local
