As a valued partner in the Webmaster and Search community, we'd like you to be among the first to experience Bing™ and share some of its great new features. We also want to ensure you are aware of the existing and soon to be updated suite of tools available for you to power your site via www.bing.com/webmaster.

Bing is a new world of search services. It provides users with a powerful way to cut through the clutter and make more informed decisions. Among its new features:

* Instant Answers: finds specific answers to informational queries, e.g. "What is 55F in Celsius" offers rich media and structured data and a general search term like “weather” yields a 5-day forecast for your location.
* Preview: enables searchers to find out more information about a site by previewing individual results on the results page to reduce back-and-forth searching.
* Best Match: delivers results with deep links and highly relevant information to help searchers to get the right information faster.
