Microsoft's Bing feeds you, tries to keep you captive

I Love it!

This is great! I am really suprised! The results are good for my searches, and I have been using it all day instead of Google. The old LIVE search was a heap of junk and never gave decent results, but this is actually accurate, clean, some nifty features, not Google and GOOD!

I will give it at least a week to be fair to it. I am pretty bored of Google, and the millions of results that take me to fake blogs, ebay pages, expired pages and or chinese pages.

@ Me

I dont pretend to be an expert to those who have given me the low down. But fact are facts:

Download something you havent paid for. Stealing! You can call it whatever but its all the same.

I understand these guys arent stealing themselves, however their site (as named) is dedicated to linking and allowing those other people to.... OK INFRINGE!

Thus, they should be shutdown!

Thanks for all the feedback tho :) Nice to be famous for a day.

In my opinion

Sorry but I think thats a good verdict! With the clamp down on p2p in days gone by, why shouldnt this form of linking to copyrighted material be stopped?

After all, wouldnt you want the guy who told the robber where you keep your spare key to also get done!?

Downloading copyrighted material is stealing no matter how rich the company is you are stealing from. People are employed by these big companies, and when profits go down, innocent people loose jobs!

If you think ur OK cos you only download now and again, think of the millions of others who think the same! This is such a massive issue.

Enjoy your year boys.

I await the onslaught from other readers.... gulp.

Accountability?

I thought the whole point of being the big cheese, and having a wonderfull salary and yearly bonus, was that you were accountable for pretty much anything that happens in your business?

Am I missing something?

If it is not the case, I will certainly be using this excuse with my Ops Manager in my next review :)

Does this mean if I upload a picture to Facebook Google can somehow track this, and use it????
