This is the place to post any feature requests you have for the Bing team.

We can't promise we'll use them all, but we'll make sure they all make it to the product team.

Bing!

When I search for a music I should get links to buy the album/songs and preferably get cashback. :-)

I would REALLY like if on the home page, if it said "more" underneath the Explore options then went to bing.com/explore for the rest of the choices we can search for. It would be a lot more convenient.

How about make Bing Maps fully compatible with other major browsers such as Opera. Also a low bandwidth mode would be helpful for those with dial-up

Also, I just remember, I would like if I search a company name, for the stock to come up in the search results instead of having to search the quote itself.

positive suggestion for Bing... i like my Google News start-up-page; customized with news i choose / geographic places i choose / subjects i choose.
Customized is the key word.

I like the nice images you display, but when there is a big national story, like Michael Jackson's death, or Obama checking out the bum of that 16 year old, I'd like for you to use a relevant image. I just knew you'd have a classic MJ picture up there. Like this one: http://www.thelmagazine.com/imager/michael_jackson_the_king_of_pop_is_dead/b/original/1195476/3462/young-michael-jackson.jpg

Make the shopping search more intelligent. By this I mean, right now if you search for HDTV, on the left you get the options of Category, Brand and Price range. Which doesn't help me all that much. It would be nicer if it were to include things such as screen size, contrast ratio, resolution, etc. But do this for lots of various categories. Like if I were to search for a MP3 Player, give me options for size, screen type, etc. Otherwise, I'd rather go somewhere else and use their filtering (also far more likely to buy through them). Hopefully that makes sense.

On image search, if I search for "Winston Edmondson", and select "Large Images", and then after viewing the results I search for "George Michael", keep the Large Images preference for that search. Right now, it goes back to default, which is a pain.

I want to see something that aggregates recipes. I always search for my recipes online and hate to sift through the thousands of sites. Are you guys working on something like this?

music search: preview like www.skreemr.com style?

improved spellcheck/suggestion (for the selected Bing UI language)?

Most important one:
at least the front page without errors against the (x)html syntax. correct written web pages improve speed, serving errors doesn't.
(for FireFox the famous: HTML Validator add-on - http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/ in the options: Serial algorithm! )

Let me opt in to make my searches public, so when my contacts use bing to search, it could say, "What are your friends searching for?" and then list some popular search terms. I have nothing to hide, and my friends would benefit from seeing my search habits. Because I'm so smart.

Hi Daniel,

You can at least start bing.com without the image in the background if you use the following URL:

http://www.bing.com/?rb=0

To turn it back on, just set rb=1

Do some clever IMDB/ six degrees of Kevin Bacon mashup search. So if I enter "'movie match' 'Clint Eastwood' 'Charlie Sheen'" it would bring up the results of every movie they've been in together. Yeah, I'd like that.

I would like it so that the text previews in the site results were more obviously there, some people miss this important feature because they don't bother to hover their mouse on the far end of their search result. Also, try intergrating more news sources to the news page, for a while when I used Live search I would still have to go to Google for news, thankfully Bing is better at this but still not up to par. Also, a great feature that would help everyone is if the translation service could allow native speakers to offer better results if they find a completely unnaceptable translation, I already submitted feedback on this but really, how could "Hola, como estas? mean "do Hello, like these?" it would be great if people could submit better translations. Finally, idk what happened to it, but remember Live QnA? Perhaps, when searches end in question marks, it could bring up results of similar questions in QnA, now that there are so many people using Bing, QnA would likely have a sharp increase in traffic.

I think there should be a Book viewing thing, like Google, and how about a satelitte imagery - like maps - of other planets, I would like some syncronisation between windows live and onenote
