Bing Updates Its Image Search Results With Enhanced Photo Viewer, Speed Improvements

 

Microsoft updated Bing’s image search results pages with larger thumbnails and less white-space earlier this year and today, the company is taking this one step further by also introducing a new way to explore imagery on Bing. Instead of loading the actual page with the image after you click on a thumbnail, Bing now brings up a large image viewer that, as the company says, places “the image center stage.”

The image itself does indeed take up most of the screen, with a photo strip of other search results at the bottom and a list of recommended searches in the right sidebar. The actual site the photo comes from has now been relegated to a thumbnail in the bottom right corner. To go the site the photo originated on, users have to click on the site’s thumbnail. While site owners may not love this feature, it is actually a step up from the old system that just featured a link.

One nice feature here is that you can use your arrow keys to navigate between the various images on the photo strip. It’s also quite remarkable how fast the experience is. As Microsoft notes, the Bing team rebuilt the viewer “from the ground up focusing on speed improvements so you can see a picture immediately, without wasting time waiting for the page to load.”

The new image search experience also dims the background to make viewing images easier on the eyes and offers a full-screen mode for viewing the most interesting images up close.

Dear Mark!

How are you? How are your parents? How is Jane? I`m fine. And my family is OK.

This summer I was in London at the International School of English. I was in class 3 with eight other students. They were all from different countries – Spain, France, Japan, Argentina, Italy. Our teacher`s name was Martin Briscall. He was very nice. He was funny. He is a good teacher.

My new address is at the top of the letter. Now I`m with a Scottish family, the Browns. Mr and Mrs Brown are really good. Mr Brown`s name is Tomas. His wife`s name is Susan.Tomas is an engineer. His hobby is golf. Susan is an artist. Her pictures are wonderful!
Their children are little. The son`s name is Robert. He is thirteen. He is a good pupil. The daughter`s name is Jenny. She will be five next weekend. She is so funny. The Browns are all very friendly.

London is very big and very interesting. The weather was good – cold but sunny! English food was OK, but the coffee was horrible!

Write to me soon!

Love, Paula

P.S. Is my English OK?
