In addition to the bing features built into the Win Phone 8, There are also some very cool apps available and my absolute favorite is Nokia City Lens which is powered by Bing Maps.Nokia City Lens uses Augmented Reality to provide you with you a wealth of information about the world around you. With Nokia City Lens, you can be virtually anywhere, hold your phone up, and you see an overlay of everything that’s nearby, including Food, Hotels, Shopping, Transportation, Sights, and Attractions. Nokia city lens brings augmented reality and maps together making it an incredibly useful app when I’m traveling. When I click on the results I’m provided with what is essentially a rich Local Search result that includes photos and reviews of nearby places plus turn-by-turn directions to get me there.
Bing maps is also innovating with a new project we’re working on at MSFT called Trajectory Search. We believe that the combination of personalization with mobile intelligence can minimize the need for explicit searching. Trajectory Search predicts your trajectory of movement and your potential destinations based on GPS readings and then improves the relevance of search results based on the direction you are headed. It doesn’t require the user to enter any information about their destination, but infers your future location automatically and enhances local search results accordingly.Let’s say that I’m driving home from work after a long day and that I’ve decided to stop and pick up a pizza along the way. In this example, my location is represented by the green circle and I’m driving Northeast.Each of the flags you see represents a pizza place . The green flags are places that I’ve already passed or am about to pass while the orange flags are pizza places still ahead of me based on my current course. I don’t want to turn around and head to a pizza place I passed a few miles back so it’s especially useful for me to see those restaurants that are still ahead of me. Identifying results near a mobile user’s predicted destination is a simple means of augmenting and personalizing conventional local search and just one of many examples of how Bing is innovating and changing the future of search.
Let’s look a bit more closely at Bing integration in Win 8. Bing provides quality Search results on Win 8 in a beautiful and visual format which leverages the best of Bing from the traditional Web experience.There are 3 key ways to experienceBingon Windows 8 (click)1. Bing Search App. Searching with the Bing app is fast and fluid. You can use a touch device to tap and swipe or use a keyboard and mouse for a more traditional experience. The App is visually striking with search results laid out in a horizontal, scrollable grid. Plus, there are cool features like snap which allows you to use 2 apps simultaneously side by side. Text ads, similar to what you see on the web, are displayed in the Bing Search app (click)2. Bing Search Charm. Tap the Search Charm from anywhere in Windows 8 to easily search with Bing (click)3. There are 6Bing-Powered apps pre-loaded on Win 8: Weather, Finance, News, Sports, Travel, Maps , More to come soonOne of the best aspects of Windows 8 is you don’t have to stop what you’re doing in order to search. You can stay in the app you’re currently in or work on the document you’re in, you don’t have to leave because with Windows 8 you can search for anything at any time. Search is layered into the entire experience.
*Transition slide into YBNWe’ve seen how Bing is using cutting-edge technology across platforms to better serve our audience. So, just who are these bing users and how do they compare with the goog audience?
The heatmap uses a color spectrum from GREEN to RED to highlight the performance of the variable combinations. The GREEN side of the spectrum indicates strong ad quality while the RED side of the spectrum indicates lower ad quality.
Head/torso/tail keywords within this analysis are defined by high/medium/low search volume respectively, and are specific to queries in the Travel vertical.
To put that number in context, 47MM is the population of Spain (click), so if you’re not advertising on YBN you’re missing out on a significant audience the size of an entire country. There are 225MM unique searchers in the US153MM use YBN47MM do not use Google
