Microsoft is making a radical change to their Bing search engine that will appeal to readers the world over. The company has unveiled a new system that assists in book discovery. If someone searches for a specific title and its written by a well known author, Bing now displays a carousel that lists a number of New York Times bestsellers.
Currently Bing lists bestselling books in just a few genres; fiction, non-fiction, kids and business. If you click on individual title you can find out more about each book. Bing will refresh the carousel as the best-seller lists change, so come back when you’re ready to add new titles to your reading list.
