Microsoft Makes It Easier to Find People on the Internet

Microsoft today rolled out the so-called People Autosuggest, a new feature for its Bing search engine that helps you easily find someone on the Internet.

Basically, whenever you’re searching for a celebrity or simply a friend that’s already linked to your LinkedIn profile, Bing automatically provides you with suggestions, not only to make the whole searching process easier, but also faster.

“In the milliseconds between keystrokes, Bing lets you narrow down your search by clicking on the correct person. If Bing has information on a person, we let you know by displaying it below the search box. In some instances, multiple people share the same name. When this happens, we’ll provide information for the most relevant people with that name, and help you narrow down your search,” the company explained.

At this point, this new option seems to be available in the United States only, but expect all the other countries to receive it in the coming weeks.
