Search, the comings and goings of Bing – Computer Point

Rome – Bing is no longer partners Facebook to search for content on the social network, a “separation” consensual comes quietly to emphasize the lack of interest of users for an integrated search feature on Facebook .

The search engine Microsoft had joined the program Graph Search Facebook almost two years ago, now Graph Search has been updated with search features typical of a search engine and Bing, obviously, is no longer needed.

The same Facebook executives have always admitted the lack of interest of the users of the social network for the integrated search, and Bing in recent years has worked as an agent “external” to the network without having any privileged access to data center of Facebook.

The change will have major consequences in short even for Bing, the engine which also grows on its own with new features designed for travelers, he needs to find a hotel (with a lot of reviews previous clients) and maybe to book a room on the spot. Just on these features thematic search engine concerns the European survey on the alleged anticompetitive conduct of Google: the new Competition Commissioner (Margrethe Vestager) confirmed to have scheduled a meeting with the companies that are opposed to the overwhelming power of Mountain View in the field .
