With several new products launching since Monday morning, it all sure looks good for the software giant Microsoft and its boss Steve Ballmer, maybe the best week ever for its engineering team too. In the meantime, their press corps was also super busy handling the launch of Windows Phone 7 in New York City on Monday by CEO Steve Ballmer. Then, another big event for Bing + Facebook secret sauce to be announced on Wednesday (October 13) in San Francisco, maybe without the present of Mr. Ballmer.
For the San Francisco event, several bloggers speculated that Bing will showcase several new features including integration with HTML5. While within a walking distance and a short bus ride from Silicon Valley, Facebook engineers will also join the event.
Since mid-September, many tech watchers and bloggers have been speculating to see Bing soon to announce some kind of extension to prolong the search excitement between the social networking and the decision engine. Also, Facebook may shows some new features to integrate its users’ updates and users’ personalization program into the decision engine.
