Bing - the decision engine

A new breed of search engine has arrived, a search engine that does more than point you to a set of links. Microsoft have built a “decision engine” and it’s called Bing. Internet search has become the No. 1 avenue for finding information and getting things done. But with more than 200 million Web sites online (and counting), most search engines are ill-equipped for the task. Not Bing.

Bing provides direct access to the information you’re looking for. Bing organizes search results so you can quickly and easily locate the content that matters most. And Bing helps you harness that information through exclusive tools specific to your key tasks, leading to more-informed decisions. Put simply, Bing is a first-of-its-kind decision engine.

It is still in beta phase, so time to test it i’ll say!

Google Chrome 2

It’s been 8 months since Google launched Google Chrome. Users have been sending lots of feedback and feature requests so they’ve increased their focus on speed and also added some of the most-requested features. Some of these improvements made it into the Beta version that they first released in March, and they’ve continued to improve the Beta since then. Now they are moving the Beta version to the stable channel for all users to enjoy.

Here are some improvements that you’ll notice right away as stated by Google:

Improved New Tab Page: The most requested feature from users was the ability to remove thumbnails from the New Tab page. Now you can finally hide that embarrassing gossip blog from the Most Visited section.

Full Screen Mode: If you’ve ever given a presentation or watched a large video using Google Chrome, you might have wished you could use every last pixel on your screen for the content. Now you can hide the title bar and the rest of the browser window by hitting F11 or selecting the option in the Tools menu.

Form Autofill: Filling out your information in forms over and over again can be tedious. Form autofill helps by showing information you’ve previously entered into the same form fields automatically. If at any point you want to clear out your information, that’s easy to do from the Tools menu.

And here are some improvements that aren’t immediately visible, but will make web browsing with Google Chrome more enjoyable:

Increased Stability: Google Chrome is more stable than ever–we have fixed over 300 bugs that caused crashes since launch.

Increased Speed: Making the web faster continues to be our main area of focus. Thanks to a new version of WebKit and an update to our JavaScript engine, V8, interactive web pages will run even faster. We’ve also made sure that JavaScript keeps running fast even when you have lots of tabs open. Try opening a bunch of web applications and then running your favorite benchmark. You can read more about V8 in our JavaScript scalability post on the Chromium blog.

If you’re already using Google Chrome, you’ll be automatically updated to this new version soon or you can get the latest version at google.com/chrome.

Google is referring to this as Chrome 2, but that’s mainly a metric to help them keep track of changes internally they say. They will continue to roll out useful updates as often as possible.
