I've used it on occasion and found it's better than Google. For example, trying to find out when polling places for the Australian election opened, G returned all sorts of irrelevant results, eg articles about elections in the UK from 2006. There was nothing on the first page that lead to the answer.

I tried the same thing with Bing, it still had a few irrelevant results, but #3 or #4 (I forget) was the right one.

Trouble is I (and probably most people) are so used to going to Google that I usually forget Bing is even there. There's been heaps of times that I've given up and closed Google because I can't find the results, when really I should have moved over to Bing...
