What movie to see? Where to go on spring break? What pants to buy? Research shows people are happiest with their decisions when they’ve consulted friends or family. This is why Bing lets you tap into the wisdom of friends and experts in the social sidebar.
Starting today, five times more of your friends’ content on Facebook is searchable – including status updates, shared links, comments, and photos from your friends. Bing is the only search engine where you can find relevant search results along with the people who can help you make a decision – so you can spend more time doing and less time searching.

A quick search on Bing gives you not only great web results, but a list of your friends from social networks who’ve lived in or visited the city, their recommendations on places to stay and photos they’ve posted from their favorite restaurants. You’ll also see advice from experts across the web to help you make the most of your trip.
