[kt543]

I have just got the updated Bing homepage....

[Niekess]

Got the same..

Sad thing, it's also gone when I go back to it again.. :(

[123456789A]

wow, that looks a lot better than the current/old one!

[Niekess]

Yea, I want it back already..

Microsoft teases me with showing one time the new design and then back old design.. they are evil to me.. :(

Bing has a long ways to go before it has the number of people visiting it over google IMO.

I heard they were going to do this, but I just noticed it on my computer. I never seen a screen shot either, so here is one.

I like it!

Yep it been rolled out to the US. Why is yours in a box? Is your screen that big? Mine scales so the image has two slim grey bars at the top and bottom only.

I have the same box as the screenshot @ both 1680x1050 and 1920x1200.

Indeed, the image is bigger, but on larger screens it still has that border. I like the new look. Honestly Bing's accuracy has been getting pretty good lately.

I do not like the search result layout though. It is hard to tell which are ads and which are results with Bing.

Much easier with Google.

[zeta_immersion]

forget the adds ... Aveo + F-Secure? in the search result 3 times ....

[ObiWanToby]

The sad thing is the Aveo was an ad!

Is that a html5 video in the background or a static image?

[jakem1]

Nice. I prefer the darker look and the links look better abov the image than at the top of the page.

It is a static image.

static (hint: no playback control on the screenshot)

It could be an HTML 5 video too. It takes a few seconds for the video to load, and for the playback button to appear. :p

Oh, didn't saw this thread. And it's quite old too! It only started appearing for me just now.

Heh, there were three different threads about the new homepage, including yours :p No worries, though :) This is exciting news, considering the homepage hasn't gone through a huge overhaul before (it looked pretty much the same since Bing's release in 2009).
