Bing it with BingTweets

Unless you have gotten rid of your TV and unplugged your computer, chances are you have heard of Microsoft Bing. Microsoft has spent a lot of money getting the word out about Live.com (err… I mean Bing.com). I am not a big Bing fan, but I appreciate the fact that Microsoft is making chances to make things happen in the search engine market. Google has been almost too dominant, so I am pulling for Bing to grow and become a major factor. But as great as Bing is, there is something better than that around: BingTweets. BingTweets is a very cool Twitter + Twitter Trends + Bing mashup that lets you stay on the top of everything going on Twitter and get some search done at the same time.

So here is how Bing Tweets work. At the very top, you are reminded of what’s hot on Twitter. Whatever is trending on Twitter is going to show up in a bigger font. Once you click on a specific keyword, the Bing results are updated automatically to show you what’s already on the Internet about that trend. Your Twitter sidebar is also updated with the latest discussions about your topic.

BingTweets which has come about from a partnership between Microsoft and Federated Media is a great way to stay on the top of things on Twitter and have fun searching online on Bing. There was a time when people did most of their research on search engines. But after being on Twitter for months, I can tell you that there is no better place to get cool research done than Twitter. Whether you are looking for instant feedback, ideas on how to expand your business, or information on a specific topic, there is a good chance you can find what you need on Twitter. And just in case you don’t, BingTweets has your back. Who know Bingtweeting could be this much fun?
