I like their maps.

if by that you mean what used to be "www.maps.live.com" then yes, i like them too, the ariel photos are much better than google's ariel photos. i've been using maps.live.com long before bing came about.

bing is annoying... :-/

hmmm? let me take a stab in the dark and say its to get people like you to go to and use their website

I actually kinda like it. The results seem to be better, and they're grouped intuitively (most of the time). There's a feature you can flip through the results without the page refreshing. Makes it faster and easier to use.  I also like the fact that they show video results that are more than just YouTube.  LOL!

And yes, their maps rock!

good post dssavedra.

I was a little confused about this myself.

About a month ago my computer crashed and so I bought a new one.

For some reason I was unable to have Mozilla firefox remember log in info from session to session which is a real pain.  For example I had to log into BassResource.com everytime i visited, even the same day.  So I had to switch to Explorer (ugh) and got a bing toolbar and bing this and bing that.  I deleted a bunch of it but still use the Live search feature which is pretty good.

Sure do miss firefox.
