Who has tried it, and what are your thoughts? Competition for Google?
Bing

Quote:
Microsoft's Bing search engine has started to become publicly available, allowing the world to decide whether the company's latest effort has the goods to take on Google.

The engine, which replaces Live Search, debuted Thursday at the D: All Things Digital conference and is slated to be fully available by Wednesday. (Microsoft said it would start becoming publicly available Monday, but that it wouldn't be fully launched until Wednesday.)

Among the other naming changes that go along with the new search, Live Search Cashback is now Bing Cashback, while technology from Microsoft's Farecast acquisition now powers Bing Travel. Virtual Earth gets a name change (though not an upgrade in my book) and is now Bing Maps for Enterprise.

I have been testing out Bing for a few days, although I like the strides it is making, it still has a long way to go to catch Google.

Bing is cutting into market share of yahoo and search.

If MS can grow it right and keep it simple, they can rip to shreds.
