Not a big thing, just Bing without any Yahoo

Microsoft has finally unveiled it's enhanced search service, but no big announcement about a deal with Yahoo as widely expected.

Rather disappointing really, as is the name, "Bing"...

We will have to wait until the official launch next week for some real fireworks and to see if Bing is really anything to get excited about.

But it seems Bing is expected to be a slow burner, with development towards a full and final version expected only in the next six to twelve months.

It will be interesting to keep an eye on the blogosphere next week to see if users are as bowled over by Bing as Microsoft would lead us to believe.
