Microsoft launches Bing

If you haven't heard already, Microsoft launched their new search engine a couple days ago: Bing. Now, all things considered, I have to admit I'm skeptical about anything Microsoft (too many years of crappy Windows experience will do that). But I finally got a chance to dink around with Bing today and do some ego searches (mainly for 420 Creative). I compared the results with Google and so far it's not bad. I don't expect the results to be the same of course - different search engines, different algorithms. Though I do expect some consistency in relevancy. Based on my **very** limited testing on various search terms that I know will bring up specific results, Bing is definitely a contender. I'll play some more in the coming days and post back here. However, I don't expect anything crazy.
