Default Bing?

Is the new search engine "Bing" part of MSN?

Bing is awesome I get most of my traffic from it lately. I feel google will have its work cut out from them soon.

Is traffic relevant to your content?

Yes, in fact it has been converting to registrations better for me. I am number one in it for several keywords though.

I have no idea (other than MSN's advertisements, etc.) How this search engine is getting any traffic! As weird as this sounds.. I am sure the traffic the search engine is not organic, but as a part of their advertising strategies.

BC the searches yield terrible results. It is painful to execute any searches on there... sometimes the results are not even relevant. I am also seeing some traffic from bing, but still do not understand why anyone would use it.

I'm not sure what I think about Bing. The results are different than Google's, but I am undecided if that is bad.

The bing results seem pretty good. But I'm not convinced that a lot of people are using it. I've seen quite of few bings ads running in adsense. So, I'm wondering how much of the bing traffic has been purchased from Google.
