Bing team announced today that the decision engine support for World IPv6 Day was lasted only 24 hours on June 7-8 testing period. Bing tested its site starting on June 7 (Tuesday) at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time and ended 24 hours later. After that day Bing had disabled IPv6 support. As per Bing team wrote “…the test of the next-generation Internet went entirely well.” Bing team is now working hard to make sure the entire web properties can support IPv6 for a long run.
On the other positive side of Bing’s family member Xbox, the top video gaming website was also successfully tested their entire web properties, include www.xbox.com, live.xbox.com, and marketplace.xbox.com. Given the important of online gaming business for Microsoft revenue plus the popularity of Kinect hands-free motion controller, Xbox website will maintain IPv6 support until further notice.
