In the event the Tweets coming out of Microsoft;s annual provider meeting are on level, the 2.0 release of Microsoft;s Bing lookup engine is coming this fall, and possibly as soon as next week.Today, September ten, could be the day that about 20,000 or so Softies have descended on Safeco Area in downtown Seattle for their annual pep rally and set of item demos.According to a handful of Tweets I;ve observed to date, meeting attendees (such as those that are observing remotely) have observed a demo of Bing two.0. At least 1 Tweeter claimed the new update of Bing is likely to be rolled out the week of September 14.None with the Tweets have offered away countless of the new attributes in the update. Here;s 1:“Bing 2.0, out this month,
Office 2007 Standard Key, has some exciting new functions. Imagine seeing maps plus pics from the neighborhood of a restaurant to try. “Another:“BING two.0 terrific !! watch out guys ! bing + silverlight in maps = amazing ,
Microsoft Office 2010 Key!! goodbye google”Microsoft rolled out Bing one.0 in late May very well. The first rollout was as much about rebranding and repositioning Microsoft;s lookup engine as a “decision engine” as it was about introducing a slew of new attributes. 1 Microsoft official told me recently that version 1.0 of Bing was optimized to handle purchasing-specific tasks, but that the next release would add more generalized search functionality.I asked Microsoft officials for comment regarding whether Bing two.0 is coming next week and what is going to be in it. I;m doubtful they;ll say anything,
Office 2010 Product Key, but if they do,
Windows 7 Professional, I;ll update this post.Update: No dice. Here;s all the spokesperson would say:“We;re very excited about some with the new Bing functions set to roll out over the next few months,
Microsoft Office 2010 Home And Stude/nt, but have nothing to announce right now.”
