  1. Comment - Bing vs. Google rematch on video search

    (Nov 11, 2009 - 10:10 PM)

    Google _did_ return more relevant results to the intention of the query, no question. I don't think Bing absolutely obstructed the ability to find a good result, but it did present less relevant results up front. If Google were to add one of those missing presentation features -- for instance, hover-over-thumbnail previews -- then I think that would be enough to tip the balance in favor of Google, in my opinion. And who knows, that could happen tomorrow?

    You're right, of course -- 3.5.4 was the latest stable version that we've had an opportunity to test, we'll be putting 3.5.5 through its paces soon.

    The Office Web Apps feature will be enabled by Exchange 2010, so that will be available now. But you're right, the ability for Outlook 2010 to be able to support TPR depends very much on Outlook 2010 being publicly available -- outside Beta 1, that is.
