I just saw a new Bing ad that’s actually a kind of Halloween/Vampire-fad inspired thing. It’s a lot better than it sounds…I think it was showcasing the restaraunt finding feature, actually.

Nice to see country specific ads. At least they are paying attention to each market.

I am interested in the animated background of the animal standing. Animated backgrounds would be cool.

I’m actually impressed that MS manages to pull off a pretty good advert, despite the bad ones in the past. Good for MS, they’ll need it against Google=P

PS: I’m actually a Google fanboy

Glen > if you want the full Bing “experience”, just change the language to “United States – English” in the Bing homepage. Like a lot of Internet services (Facebook Lite for instance), changing the language will enable you to test the features restricted to some countries. ;o)

Seriously, Bing is an awesome product/service, which is clouded by a bunch of totally ‘disconnected from the market, audience and chord of the US consumer’ marketing team.
These advs are a trillion times better seiously –
‘Search Overload’ – really?

I’ve never seen the ad(s) on TV (I too am not much of a TV watcher these days), but that first ad is bunged onto the end of every Nine News podcast. Just after the newsreader signs off by saying “and make sure to use Bing for all your online searches”. Tacky!

and they wonder why Bing isn’t gaining more market share in the rest of the world. There are so many features of Bing are just not available to the rest of us
