I only just learned about Bing, watched a screencast and played around with it. I was hoping to be impressed by the nifty features demonstrated in the screencast, but everything I enter in Bing just gives me a plain old search result. I even read the help documents and entered the examples they gave, but none of those examples gave any special result.

So I am puzzled. Why would Microsoft launch a new product, show off its great features and then put a website live that doesn’t do any of the promised features? Looks to me like they have just doomed Bing.
