Bingify Your Desktop with Updated App

Microsoft has released an updated version of Bing Desktop, providing new features and an updated interface to make the app a bit more Windows 8'ish.

The new update gives you a real-time weather component, your Windows background updated automatically with the Bing homepage of the day, a conduit to show your Facebook newsfeed, and an inline search when reading through the web and documents. Not just Microsoft-centric, the inline search feature also supports non-Microsoft browsers. Here's the full list of supported applications:

  • Microsoft Word 2007 or later

  • Microsoft Outlook 2013

  • Windows Internet Explorer 6 or later

  • Firefox (latest version)

  • Chrome (latest version)

  • 360 Secure Browser (latest version)

  • Adobe Reader XI

  • Notepad

  • Wordpad
