Despite my dislike of the name Bing for Microsoft’s search engine service (I hear Janice from Friends say “Chandler Bing” every time in that nasally voice), I’m going to give it a try for a while over Google’s search. The main reason: Bing Rewards. These companies are making money, a lot of money, from our search entries, why not get in on that action a little? My son likes to play Xbox with is friends and the Xbox Live Gold subscription is rather expensive at roughly $60 for an annual fee. The Bing Rewards program lets me earn points that can be redeemed for monthly subscription extensions or other products and services. Enrollment is easy and the benefit potential beats what Google offers. It’s worth a trial run.
