I don’t normally care for Bing, but man, they do know how to find some background images... Look at that road along the edge of the lake on the left. I would love to cruise down that.

their maps are pretty good actually, some of their views are better than google’s

If you’re a Chrome user, Momentum is similar, although doesn’t feature any good driving roads.

I took a bus through that area once past Lake Lugano on my way to Florence. It was absolutely beautiful.

Lol, obviously I’m not the only one that thinks this! Nice!

It’s a work computer, so I can’t change it, lol. I might have to check that out for my laptop though.

True fact: Bing is the intentionally the best search engine for adult content

Started using Bing for some of my search stuff and there daily stuff to earn Microsoft points that I can trade for Xbox money. Sort of worth it I guess

It’s a little customizable (more options if you pay) so mine looks like this.

...that’s disturbing.
I’m just going to assume you were only commenting on things relevant to my interests this morning

i’ve only commented on your posts and the daily music thing on the FP as usual

I just made this same post - ha! http://oppositelock.kinja.com/i-never-use-bing-search-1818917201 Can you send me the link to that image? I can’t seem to find it.

Pretty funny.

How does one come about learning that fact?
![]() 09/29/2017 at 11:15 |

Wait, what? You can do that? Never heard of that, lol. I guess I might need to start just spamming Bing with searches. Gotta get some XBL credits for all that Forza DLC that will inevitably be coming in the next month or two.

By being an adult and searching for content.

I’m seeing that. I had my own photo rotation set for my home computer, but I can’t really do much like that with my work computer. And I only recently got the upgrade to Windows 10 on this thing, so this is a nice new experience.

There was a gawker article one time I can’t find.

Very nice. Mountain shots are my favorite. Does Momentum tell you anything about where the photo was taken?
![]() 09/29/2017 at 11:24 |

Yea, one of the first comments on here was a link to your post, hahaha! That was an awesome shot. I haven’t had that one come around yet.

Most of the photos have a location in the bottom left corner.

Fur sure, I mean it will take a long time to earn points but if you are doing searches anyway might be worth looking into. Can earn 30 a day for searches and some bonus points daily for checking.

Made me laugh. That link isn’t working for me - weird... Figured everyone got the same image every day.

The logic in this is astounding.

Nice. I’ll definitely have to get on that then. Thanks for the info!

Stupid link... And no, it varies from computer to computer. Within my office, I don’t think I’ve seen the images repeated at all. Granted, I don’t go around looking at everyone’s lock screens throughout the day, but still, lol.

Now you can use Google Image Search to find the higher resolution. XD

Best part about Bing is the maps “Birds-eye View” setting. That Google 3D thing is CRAP in comparison.

I took me like 20 minutes, but I found the lakes on (google) maps. The roads are a bit more suited to a rally race than to cruising....

Lots of Street view and trail view images on the Googs. There’s also an airport at the bottom of the valley below the dam.
