Bing News with Real-Time Twitter feed and Enhanced Entertainment Sharing
Do you like this story?
Over the past few months, we have been working hard to help customers make more informed decisions in search by surfacing the kind of information you can only get from your friends, often in real-time. Today, we are pleased introduce two new ways to experience Twitter and Facebook on Bing.
Bing News adds real-time Twitter updates:
Awhile back we introduced Bing social which lets you plunge into the real-time tweet stream to uncover the latest updates on the Web. This week we took it a step further by integrating some of this real time social data into Bing news.
Now alongside the latest headlines on Bing News, you will find a real-time feed with the latest updates from Twitter highlighting hot news topics. Search for a news item and immediately see what people are tweeting on the topic. As we’ve seen with the tragedy in Japan or political turmoil in the Middle East, real people are relaying timely and compelling items not captured by traditional outlets. Bing news now lets you compare and assess authoritative news analysis alongside real-time citizen journalists so you can decide which content sources you want to use.
We recently expanded Liked Results which, if you’re signed into Bing and Facebook, highlight links your friends have publicly liked or shared via Facebook directly in the search results. This week we released a new way to share movies, artists, musicians and television shows directly to your Facebook profile from Bing.
For now, these features are available in the US, and we are excited to hear what you think.
