Google Wave and Microsoft Bing (Bing is not Google)

If you haven't heard about Google's Wave yet, be prepared to be

The funny thing is today was supposed to be all about Microsoft
relaunching their sad search efforts into Bing, a new and interesting
mashup of search technologies that has the name Bing, which is
jokingly recursive in 'Bing is not Google'. Google totally got the
best PR launch of the day tho!
