Bing VisualSearch is public now. Its amazing I would say... Here is the Visual search for top iPhone apps. http://bit.ly/4oxQL1. Another example for greatest Movies by AFI rank. http://bit.ly/y1twd. For those Who cannot view the visual search, Go to bing.com/worldwide and set the country as United States. You should be able to enjoy the visual search at the url bing.com/visualsearch, by saving the settings . For example you need to buy a car, so having the different search options available and opportunity to re-order the list based on different priorities in real time is great. Plus in many cases the clickthrough from Visual Search goes to a page with reviews for the car and pointers to local dealers, which is a real help.
The nice part is, this is in Silverlight, Which is real future of the web development. HTML5 almost could do this without needing a plugin. That's probably one of the reason why, HTML 5 is being pushed by Google.
However Google launched something cool too on the same day, as when Bing Visual Search is out. http://fastflip.googlelabs.com/

You talk about bing visual search (I don't know why they want you install some thing for this, when whole world is moving towards light client browser feel). And results suck as well. You talk about fast flip (It's bull shit idea which doesn't add any value to readability of papers,I guess they named it with far insight :fast flop: )
ReplyDeleteConclusively, I guess these companies just release rubbish features to just keep them in news. (or I hope they modify their products substantially to perfectly cater to the needs they ar targetting).
