Bing Tries To Launch Social Search Improvements

Yesterday, during the Keynote with the SVP of Microsoft, Bing introduced a way to search Twitter and Facebook using bing.com/social.

As of 10pm (EST), 10 hours later, the feature which should have been live 10 hours ago, is still not live. I hope by the time this post goes live, that bing.com/social shows more than just an error page:

Bing Social Search

When it does go live, the features demoed should include:

Status updates and shared links from Facebook fan pagesAggregate shared link data for non-fan pagesNew home page with trends from Twitter and Facebook dataBetter ways to filter and sort Tweets and Facebook updates

But until then, it is kind of hard to play with.

A WebmasterWorld thread has one response that doesn’t seem positive:

Anyway, time will tell.

Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld.

Update: It does now seem to be live.
