If you want a preview of a web page without having to visit the website, Bings Look before you leap feature works great.

Microsoft has already spent a large amount of money on Television adverting for Bing.com. This might help Microsoft become a real

competitor for Yahoo and Google. When Microsoft attempted to purchase Yahoo from Jerry Yang, their $31/share offer was declined. If Bing can gain enough market shares, it may put more pressure for yahoo to accept a deal with Microsoft. It would be nice to see a real Google competitor.

Will Microsofts Bing be able to compete?
