Yesterday, we released an update to a features guide about bing.com. This was a really fun project that took some time and the efforts of several people to complete. There is some attention being drawn to the new features in bing. This morning, a search on Bing.com for "discover bing" returned the updated site as the 2nd result. I saw the same ranking on Google too ;) There was a surprising article from All Things Digital that even embedded three feature videos from the new site.
The site is located here. Below is a screen shot of the site. I have to say that I really enjoyed working with the designer on this project. The look and feel that he created was exceptional and I think there was even more he was able to design that was just outside the realm of what we could capture in the final application. Still, with great design, Silverlight 3 was the right tool to bring it to life. Check out the animations when the site loads, on hover of the buttons, when you click on a feature button, and the slider animation that goes from one feature to the next. We captured some very intuitive ways to get from point A to point B in this application.
