  In New Ads for Bing, ‘Doing’ Is the Thing
Time: 11:59 EST/16:59 GMT | News Source: New York Times | Posted By: Robert Stein

Bing, the search engine from Microsoft, is changing advertising approaches for the first time since 2009, when it bing-ed its first “bing.” A campaign that is scheduled to begin on Sunday will declare, “Bing is for doing.” And yes, the “ing” in “doing” is meant to echo the “ing” in “Bing.” The new theme replaces the original theme, “Bing and decide,” which presented Bing as a search engine that, unlike Brand G (a k a Google), helped consumers make more informed decisions.

When Bing first came out I often double checked on Google. Not any more. Bing does a great job and those who haven't tried it shouldn't knock it.

I did a search for awbrian in bing and google.

First entry on bing was awbrian's profile on ActiveWin and just about every other entry on page 1 was a post made by aw or reference to aw.


Sorry to say #5 but you didn't show up until page 3 of google and not much after that.

Just sayin'.

#7: FYI I found this little tidbit in the BING search

"We are only mere weeks away from releasing a beta of the all new ActiveWin 3.0 website. It's expected to be a very exciting time for everyone at ActiveWin and all of the members.

We are also going to be promoting our forums heavily once the new site is released. We are cleaning up the current forums as we speak, weeding out the spam as well as moving items back on topic.

We have also released some new forum topics, from Windows Mobile to Off Topic discussions, such as politics and even linux!

This is very exciting, and we hope you are just as excited. Thank you for visiting ActiveWin.com!"


You wrote that over 2 years ago. I guess if I published such inaccurate information, I too would want to hide in Google's poor search results.
