Default Bing.com

When we first launched the Bing.com beta internally for testing I wasn't a huge fan. Google often had better results, and I was just used to it. I also wasn't a fan of the load times for Bing due to the "pretty picture". As of late though I've had Google asking me to verify that I'm a real person when doing searches. That is just a wast of time, especially when I'm at work. Needless to say Bing.com is now my new homepage and search engine. Anywho, reason I post is you should go check out the Bing.com "pretty picture" today, it's pretty sweet!! Hover over the pic to find out some neat info too!

Cheers!

-Steve
