Bing Desktop Description
If you want to able to launch your most frequent tasks from the same place, then Bing Desktop can come in handy as it enables you to perform web searches, read the latest news, get the weather forecast and access your Facebook account from the same app.
You will need to pay extra attention during the installation and uncheck the changes you do not want to be applied on your computer.
The actual application does not take up much space on your desktop and you can enter the words or phrases you want to search over the Internet using Bing search engine. The results will be displayed in your default browser, which will automatically be launched (a new tab will be opened if the browser is already running).
If you want to get the weather forecast, you need to enter a city name or postal code, then select it once Bing Desktop finds the correct location – you can specify up to 3 different locations. You can choose between Fahrenheit and Celsius as the measurement units, then analyze the 5-day forecast.
You can also rely on Bing Desktop to get the most recent news from all over the world, browse through the most popular articles or watch the trendiest videos and images.
Furthermore, you can also get to your Facebook newsfeed with ease once you enter your credentials and login to your account. You can also manage your friend requests and read or send messages to your contacts.
All in all, Bing Desktop can help you save time if you like to often read the news on the Internet or you want to view the current weather for a certain location. Additionally, considering the app is freeware, you can test for as long as you want to without any worries.
