More Beautiful Search Experience In IE9

We should note that not everyone will be able to benefit from this upgrade; IE9 isn't supposed to get along well with Windows XP. Also, Microsoft is taking a risk by tying Bing, which isn't that popular, to Internet Explorer, which loses market share almost every month.

Still, a post on the Bing Search Blog promised that people who use Bing and IE9 together will see "-a-nimations that make search come alive, making Bing's signature home page image an even more engaging experience."

Also, users should see "-s-mooth and beautiful transitions. Transitions are seamless from query to search results and then back again, and gone are the jarring page flips of the past."

Then one other benefit will be the fact that "-p-reviews of images, videos and text are bigger, bolder and easier to trigger."

It wouldn't be at all surprising if at least a few people decide to try Bing and IE9 as a result.
