"Bing rolled out a new design for its social sidebar feature Tuesday, an update it hopes will make finding friends relevant to your search easier to do based on what those people have shared on the web.\n\u201CAt Bing, we realize that sometimes the most useful information doesn\u2019t come from ten blue links,\u201D the Bing Team posted on its official blog. \u201CBy bringing together knowledge from social networks with traditional web results, Bing is the only engine that saves you time allowing you to make decisions with greater confidence based on the input of other people.\u201D\nSocial results from networks such as Foursquare, Twitter, Facebook, and Klout are displayed on the right side of the screen, just as they have been in the past. With the updated design you no longer needed to hover over a friend to see additional content, and a \"+\" sign lets you dive a little deeper on results you\u2019re particularly interested in.\n\nSo, a search for \u201CNew Orleans\u201D might bring up your friend\u2019s Facebook photos from the city in the sidebar. Photos that you\u2019ll be able to see, at least in thumbnail form, right on the screen without any extra work.\nResults on the sidebar are also now left-justified, making for less blank space on the page.\nBing\u2019s social sidebar updates will be rolling out to users over the next few days. Let us know what you think about the update in the comments.\nImage courtesy of Microsoft"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
