Bing Promises to Become a Decision Engine...

Change is a part and parcel of the universe and the same is true about the cyber world. “Bing”, new search engine created by Microsoft, promises to bring that change by becoming your “decision engine”. Though this search engine is available to every net user from 1^st June, but according to the company sources it will take another two days to make it completely available to the general public. With this new introduction the company hopes to outperform the search engine leader Google.

With this new search engine the company has replaced Live Search. Microsoft would aim to match the “perceived satisfaction” of search engine with the real experience by helping the user get exactly what he was looking.

Rather than working like any other search engine bing promises to be different. The major difference would be in approach. Bing would list all the relevant results and reviews taken for various sites in the same page along with related results in the left hand column. The categorization is done based on various features of the product or the subject that you are searching about.

In case you are searching for “great white shark” apart from a listing of relevant websites you will also get a list of other links in the left hand side of the webpage that focus on topics like great white shark attacks, largest great white shark, sharks, great white shark UK, and great whiter shark attack pictures.

If it is hotels that you are looking for then again this “decision engine” will give a list of various variations. The main purpose behind this is to narrow down your search and make it as specific as possible. Thanks to all these specifications and sub-categorizations it is hoped that you will find what you are looking for pretty quickly.

While looking for a particular shop or hotel bing does not ignore the local sites at all but includes them in its search. This makes your search results more specific. The site also has a very attractive look. It is also quite user friendly.

Now, all this site has to do is to keep up the good work. Let us not forget that the cyber world is evolving every minute. In short once this site gets launched we would definitely hope to see some more advancements and where it goes here after. We are really lucky that we are born in an age where change comes everyday.

I doubt if all the seo companies will start creating seperate strategies to rank well in Bing.

Hosting Services-BPOs Find New Way to Cost Cutting...

Due to the ongoing recession there are many Indian BPO companies that are currently considering various ways of cutting their production cost. In this regard some of them have found hosting services to be quite cost efficient. These companies are now seeking the help of various telecom companies so they can outsource their communications infrastructure.

This step is supposed to help these BPOs to curtail investment in establishment cost. Thanks to this kind of outsourcing facilities they can now concentrate on the job leaving the rest of the infrastructure related issues to these telecom companies.

According to the practice these hosting service providers will take care of your total infrastructure ad its maintenance. All the BPO companies have to do is to tell the hosting companies the number of seats that they have to cover. Once the equipments are in place it would be business as usual for you.

This collaboration helps the BPO companies in another way. Now they do not need to la off people to cut cost. This helps the companies to preserve their work force. Some industry experts believe that in future this will help the companies do their business with minimum infrastructure. Only a few bare essentials like computers, and routers would do.

Once they have outsourced the whole process the BPO companies would not have to hire experts to look after the machines. This will save the companies about Rs 15 to 20 lakhs every year. A BPO company who has gone for hosting service can save up to Rs 40 lakhs.

This whole procedure of curtailing the cost is pretty unique and for once saves the jobs of those people who are already with the company for a long time. It is due to this innovative thinking that helps the Indian outsourcing industry to command a market price of $ 47 billion.
