778845 2009-06-01 09:59:00 Microsoft's new search engine is live (www.bing.com) - it's not supposed to officially launch till the 3rd, but I can get to it and the searches seem to work.

Edit: It looks like only some fairly basic features are live - all of the fancy "decision engine" stuff shown in their promo video doesn't seem to exist.

778849 2009-06-01 10:21:00 I'm looking forward to playing with some of the "decision engine" features - video here www.decisionengine.com - as it seems quite promising. somebody (208)

778851 2009-06-01 22:31:00 Yeah, it seems to keep sending me to UK pages. Is just as quick as Google though, and looks cleaner, however the results just aren't as intuative. wratterus (105)
778852 2009-06-01 22:47:00 There IS a tradition here, shortly features will be dropped and slowness added. ;) R2x1 (4628)
778853 2009-06-01 22:52:00 why do we need it anyway? GameJunkie (72)
778854 2009-06-01 22:52:00 Damned thing can't find the site I was looking for even though I typed the full URL into the search box, of course it found 20 pages that mentioned the site in question. Metla (12)
