The Onion Reports Accurate Analysis of Bing..

      by Wyatt Walter

The Onion was trying to make fun of Microsoft’s new Bing service and hit the nail on the head.. Of course the third reaction was completely ridiculous, but they got it right with the first “opinion quotes”. The first one reads:

“Bing? Interesting. I’ll have to Google that when I get home.”

Hehe that’s exactly right. They can’t take down Google for search when it’s a household word the way it is now. Time will tell, but I can’t imagine any market share going to Microsoft for quite a while (of course excluding a short burst of traffic from the launch).

The second opinion reads:

“Finally a search engine for the Zune age!”

So true.. Microsoft has done a great job with market penetration with Windows, Office, and Internet Explorer. With iPods and Google.. er, media players and search engines? Exactly.

It’s only funny because it’s true.
