Microsoft Bing at the Avvocating Conference
Over the next couple weeks we will introduce the speakers confirmed for our two-day Avvocating Conference in January. The goal from the outset was to invite technology leaders – those who drive online marketing and see firsthand how it’s impacting the legal industry. We’re absolutely thrilled to announce such a great line-up and happy to provide a sneak peak of what to expect if you can join us. 
Introducing Stefan Weitz, Director of Bing at Microsoft.
Stefan, a 12-year Microsoft veteran, is an evangelist for the company’s Search technologies. Working across the industry to better understand searcher behavior, he gathers and synthesizes feedback to drive product improvements.
Prior to Search, Stefan led the strategy to develop the next generation MSN portal platform and developed Microsoft’s muni WiFi strategy, leading the charge to blanket WiFi across metropolitan cities. He has also worked in various groups including Windows Server, Security, and IT.
As a huge gadget ‘junkie’, Stefan can often be found in electronics shops across the world looking for the elusive perfect piece of technology.
At the Avvocating Conference on January 22 from 3:00-4:00PM, Stefan will be speaking on “The Future of Search”. He will provide a behind-the scenes look at Bing, highlight how it’s different compared to other search engines, explore advances in local search and discuss how to position your law practice to be prominently featured in search queries.

I use both Bing and Google search engine and i dont see much difference in their search results. I use google for searching hard to find academic topics and Bing for general search.
