Bing Maps for the Enterprise

I never thought I would feel sorry for the Beast from Redmond, but they seen to be regularly plumbing new lows. Microsoft Bob, you have a new rival for Worst Marketing Brainwave Ever, and his name is Bing.

(And now I have to change all my presentation slides to refer to "Bing Maps for the Enterprise"? Flibbitty Jibbets for the Enterprise? Google at least managed to turn their silly name into a verb before plastering it everywhere in sight. Bing?!?)

There is nothing wrong with bing, except I can't get there yet.

bing rhymes with ping

and binging is much faster to say than googling

If you can ping you can bing.
All they need is a bong service to complete the offering.

Brought to you by the people who thought Jerry Seinfled was cool. In 2009.

What is great about bing and bong is they mean so many things to so many people. What more can you ask for in a decision engine.

Remember they are not building search engine they are building a decision engine. Yes I would plan my trip with bong.
