Chetan — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 03:32:12 +0000

Microsoft, worlds biggest software firm – popular for there windows operating system recently launched a new search engine called Bing. Microsoft officially declared about there new search engine on 28th May and will be deployed worldwide on June 3. So now this is the next step of Microsoft in there war against Google.

Just few months ago one search engine called cuil was launched by former Google employees but after getting huge popularity it was a fail. Cuil even fail to crawl TheChetan.com even after 5 months of there launch. and Even today it is not crawled properly and never received even a single visitor from them !!

So this new step my Microsoft will fail ?? Now this depends on time.
They have many new features. I think rather than explaining them here, you should use them to experience them.
One of the best and interesting feature is .. they change there main background on daily basis, so it will be interesting to see the new image on each day.

As Microsoft Internet explorer is widely used web browser, now Microsoft will give preinstalled Bing toolbar in IE, so i think the users of Bing will increase with time. Also Microsoft is launching Windows 7 in few months, so there must be some features in Windows 7 for there new baby… BING !!

Go visit : Bing.com

And let me know whats your experience on Bing. !

UPDATE : I am receiving traffic from Bing !! So i think Bing will compete Google atleast like Yahoo.! So check your visitors stats and let me know whats at your end.

BMW EfficientDynamics – in there website too . !!

BMW, (Bavarian Motor Works) A German automobile maker. Which is famous for there high end luxury vehicles. From Cars to Bike they are best in class. I love BMW cars, specially M (Motorsports) series.
BMW is using EfficientDynamics technology in there vehicles to get most from there cars in less power.

I recently visited there website BMW.com. I just opened the site and my cell starts ringing. I pick up the call and BMW site was opened on the screen.

About after one minute the screen goes dark and BMW EfficientDynamics mode was switched ON.

As you must know that black color on screen saves the power consumption …

“Image displayed is primarily a function of the user’s color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen.”
Roberson et al, 2002

I just amazed to see the energy saving techniques used by BMW, even on there websites they are trying to save the energy !!..

So just open BMW.com and wait for about 1min. the power saver technology “BMW EfficientDynamics” will start working ..
