This is why I use Google instead of Bing


Recommended Posts

Google has quite fully featured unit conversion, currency conversion and scientific calculator built in their search term parser (among other things, of which I do not care, however). I've found the unit conversion calculator useful a few times, too.

 

Doesn't make me wonder why Bing doesn't have it - they probably haven't had the time to grow all kinds of bells and whistles around it. In time, they will, too. US version, evidently, already has something along those lines. I'd wish people would stop posting US version screenshots and boasting about it.

It's also funny how Bing almost exactly copies Google's layout. The only thing missing is a postscript saying "Inspired by Google" ;)

Actually, Google has copied various things that appeared on Bing first.

Most likely you're using US/UK bing. The bing experience on other countries is awful. I changed my bing local to US, that's the only way to make it usable.

Oh, that's a good point!  OP, where are you searching from?

Are you trying to work out if your dealer gave you the correct amount.

 

Heh, no. I have some gold that I want to sell. Buyers are quoting prices in grams. :)

Bing Maps ***** for rural Quebec, Canada. If i'm going to use Google Maps then i'll use the whole Google service instead.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at in both those pictures lol. Apart from Google showing 2 lakes that Bing doesn't show, everything else looks the same.

Zoom out. There's a lot of things missing in Bing.
