Bing is Microsoft's new search engine, and though its traffic pales in comparison to Google, the two still have immature tiffs.
A few days ago, a blown transformer knocked out a small part of Bing's operation, leaving one page displaying "Bing Temporarily Unavailable." Google automatically indexed the page and listed it in search results for "bing." Even though Google is an algorithm with no human characteristics, it can still be a douche bag.
Even worse, Google is still listing the "unavailable" page even though it would usually toss out old information like this within a day or so. Bing did the only thing a helpless geek can do in a situation like this: They Twittered about it.
