Bing reviewed: it doesn’t work

Well, my flirtation with Bing – the so-called Google killer – was short. One search in fact.  

I just spotted a tweet from Paul Fisher of the Interactive Advertising Bureau that it was live so jumped on.

I offered it an ego search to start off with.

I ticked the box labelled “only from Australia” and Googled (oops, sorry – force of habit) Binged (bung?) the word Mumbrella.

Can you guess what web site it doesn’t list? A little clue: It begins with Mumbrella and ends in .com.au.

I think I’ll be sticking with Google, thanks very much.
