Do you like Microsoft's new search engine Bing?

If so, which sections or features do you like about it? In your opinion, is it better than Google? Which features and sections are better than Google?

Hello cindy,
I’ve been using Bing (Kumo) off and on over that past couple of weeks. I’ve used it side by side with Google and by itself. In some cases I’ve been self-consciously testing and comparing results. At other times, I’ve simply used it to find information or navigate to desired sites.
My overall assessment is very positive. Kumo, now Bing, has performed well and I’ve been satisfied with the results.

Just compare them by yourself, if you can decide between them!

I love bing features, like:

Image Search infinite scrolling means you never have to click to another page when you're searching for photos and graphics. The more you scroll, the more Live Search and now Bing keeps loading images related to your search.

A myriad of filtering options also accompanies Image Search, including size, color, layout and style.

Video search preview lets users mouse over video results and get a 30-second preview directly in the results.

ClearFlow is a mapping feature that offers up alternative routes when there's heavy traffic.

Local search is very comprehensive. If you conduct a general search for say, coffee shop, as you scroll down the results page, the map on the right sidebar scrolls with you. Once you click on a result, you get one-click directions, reviews, and nearby business categories. If you search for a restaurant, you'll see a visual scorecard letting which summarizes reviews the eatery has received.
