I`ve been really impressed with the progress that Microsoft have made with Bing in the last 12-24 months, feels as though there is a concerted effort happening and features are being added to search to improve it (inc. some examples from the Bing webmaster blog).
Can you speak about some of the work your currently attacking at all?
Where do you see the future of search heading in general, is the Star Trek computer pinned up on the Bing office walls like it might be in Amit Singhal`s?
Do you think search is going to be the centre of information retrieval in a more general sense long term?
With the staggering growth in mobile we`ve been seeing over the last few years, is conversational search a critical piece of the puzzle for success??
