BING will be forgotten in six months time. Forget the results as far as your own sites are concerned, just look at the pile of rubbish results it comes up with. Corporate sites, corporate sites, then corporate sites again followed by (no, not more corporate sites) but url packed keywords. Those url packed keyword results will please those who have little content but very expensive urls. But it won't work. BING can't analyse content like Google can. Game over.

I see no rubbish, that is the problem for Google. Corporate sites are a problem in SERP's? I'd rather have corporate sites than mom'n'pop sites that can't even touch the surface of a corporate site or for that matter what the corporate companies have to offer vs. mom'n'pop companies. BING at the moment for the searches I watch is DEAD on perfect just as Google is, so I'm presuming you haven't actually looked at bing's results. BING is not causing a stir because of rubbish SERP's, quite the contrary. While I do agree with you that keyword domains do well in bing it's not everything in bing's algo or their SERP's wouldn't be quite this good, nor would Sergey be fretting! I love Google, but honestly I'm quite impressed by the results on Bing and with the traffic it is providing at the moment. It's quite nice to see visitors from Bing browsing my sites vs. Google's 1 hit bounce rate visitors that are most likely my competitors. In any event, this is only my two cents so take it like a grain of salt.
