Microsoft cooking Bing client for Android?
When we talk about search engines, then there are lot of choices but Google and Microsoft Bing is on the top. Google is a proud owner of Android OS, and there are lot of people using Android OS who loves Microsoft Bing, they can use the Bing via the browser but some people love using it through the official Bing app, which is not available in Android Market at the moment, but finally Microsoft gave some words on Bing Android client:
Microsoft isn’t announcing a lot of new things at this event, but it is talking for the first time about plans for a Bing Android client as well as new mapping features and a new TV listings feature that is in testing and about to launch.
Thanks to CNET’s Ina Fried who’s covering the Microsoft event in San Francisco. Well, I agree that somehow Google is better than Bing, but if you can’t fine something on Google (that never happens :D) then Microsoft Bing will be a very good alternative.
