Britannica and Bing Beats

Posted on 05:23 by Unknown
Category: Techtoday
 
As a proud owner of the Encyclopedia Britannica Ultimate Reference Suite, I'm pretty happy that Bing has now included Britannica as part of its search results permanently.  Laugh if you will, but I have a huge fondness for the traditional encyclopedia as well as its discontinued rival Microsoft Encarta. 
 
 
I am, however, somewhat disappointed that the Britannica entry appeared much, much lower than an entry for Wikipedia when I searched for Ben Franklin on Bing.  Hopefully, that would change soon.
