TECHGEEK Tips 7: How to search with Bing
TECHGEEK TIPS 7: How to search with Bing It may sound stupid, but yes, today's topic is how to search with Bing and how to search using it. (Apparently, it's an issue). As well, it's not James who is doing this tip, it's Stewart, so we basically have no say on what is happening. Terence is recording the next tip, so at least we can be a bit prepared. And apologies for bursting your eardrums. And no, we haven't sold out yet. Yes, we are running out of tips to cover. So, if you have any, please send them to us using our contact form, or just simply comment.
