In this Corner .... Microsoft Bing: Interesting New Search Engines from Microsoft and Google

Microsoft recently launched their new search engine, Bing. While there are similarities between Bing and Google, Bing has added a few features like page preview. When you hover your mouse to the right of your search result, a preview of the page is displayed. Click here for more information about Bing.

Another search engine of interest is Google Wave which is expected to launch later this year. Google Wave, is a self described "new tool for communication and collaboration on the web." ""A wave is equal parts conversation and document, where people can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more."
