Bing – Opinion

PV — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 01:14:31 +0000

Bing – the new search engine from Microsoft definitely has a better interface than its predecessor. I personally like it better than Google which has been stagnant for too long. The search results also seem to be on par with Google at least for some common stuff, not sure if they are any better. This looks like a positive step from Microsoft in the search arena. There also seems to be a lot more positive buzz around it than its predecessor. Let’s see how this pans out. After all, competition is always good for us consumers.

Is the media trying to boost Lebron James? Is too much hype being put around his game winning shot?

Goodbye Dada!

Although the retirement came a little late, it still did come well in time & on his own terms. Sourav Ganguly will definitely be remembered for the attitude he instilled into Indian cricket if not for his significant achievements. Goodbye Dada!

Applications are being thrown at you from all directions. First it was Facebook, then came iphone, orkut, Android, Blackberry & you can even add google docs widget to your gmail. Why would you sit there & add similar applications all over the place. What next? Add a feature that’s useful damn it!

How many Accounts do I have?

usernamecheck is a great tool posted on TechCrunch that lets you know if a particular username is registered with a list of applications. Whats great about it? Like they say it is great to check all the places you are registered at if you always use a default username. Although the list of applications still is small, an enhanced list would be really great.

Wikipedia search in Chrome

Found something interesting in the new Chrome browser. Start typing the Wikipedia URL (en.wikipedia.org) into the browser & you will see a prompt to TAB for searching in Wikipedia. Seems to be a nice feature but would have been even better if it was more accessible through some shortcut. Here is a screen shot.
