After Wolfram|Alpha launched their nerd search engine about three weeks ago, Microsoft launch their new search engine, Bing. Their strategy, it seems, is to provide direct answers to questions, sort of like Wolfram Alpha does, but with a focus on everyday queries like consumer product info, weather, local interests and even health questions.

But don’t expect too much like in the video. I think three’s no much different with the old live.com (and also it’s xRank). May be need another day, another week, or another month to be there. I don’t know. Ars spot some of them, discovers much to like—and some frustration.
