While a passion for all things Google, I was extremely pleased Wolfram Alpha. I use it a bit and have limitations of its quirks and a little down. These restrictions make it will not be a Google killer, but it will be particularly useful to students and teachers. Since I was more excited about Microsoft’s “engine of the decision,” Bing, than I have been a Microsoft product on time. Could he combine the precision of Alpha driven by the wealth of Google?

During a break tonight, between work on the programming and make some updates to the site (and trying to block our chicks tweeting (a story in itself, I’ll stay with Bing for the moment), j got ripped bing.com. Although it is not, the site has an interesting video on Bing and what it can provide researchers and other search engines can not.

Perhaps it is because I can not get my hands on a live version yet. Whenever I can, I’ll go take a walk from a good “how can it serve our students trying to infiltrate from information on the Web perspective. For now, however, it appears that Google comes from me. Of course, he made a sloppy when he feels you want to buy something, but the ideas for the card when you search for a business, research, or predictive research are nothing new in Googleland.

Am I missing something revolutionary here? This is not my anti-Microsoft, the pro-Google sentiment. When I saw Alpha, I was really attracted to Alpha and now (and the students and teachers for Alpha), where its capabilities match my needs. I do not feel that when I watched the video Bing. I do that includes Bing credible sources, I guess from the defunct Encarta.

Ultimately, I left with the feeling that Bing is just a spiffed-up with Google tools such as Microsoft Encarta and Expedia work in the background. Talk back and tell me what I am missing.
