video
uncovered by MSFTKitchen, a new Bing mobile search app for the Windows Phone 8 platform appeasrs to be faster and more accurate than the existing service. Even with noise in the background, the new version of the app was able to correctly respond to a search request for a local branch of Starbucks.
