Bing has introduced a new landing page style for its image search feature. Now when you go to Bing, and click on "images", you will be presented with a page that graphically displays the top 20  current image searches and images that accompany them. 

"The landing page assembles the top images in full fidelity so you can get a quick snap-shot of some of the most popular image searches on Bing," says the Bing Image Search team. "Once you click through to the ‘images’ page you will notice that we’ve populated the tabs with the most common search queries associated with a given image.  With one simple click, you can narrow down the images to find just what you’re looking for or be inspired to discover more."

Images have always been one of Bing’s strong suits, from the style of scrolling the search engine offers on image search results, which was later copied by Google, to the Bing home page, which displays a photo of the day, which was kind of also copied by Google. 

It will be interesting to see if Google  adopts a similar strategy with its image search landing page after this. Currently, Google just has the plain page with the Google logo/search box, which resembles the search engine’s classic home page. Bing’s new approach is certainly more interesting. 

"The landing page assembles the top images in full fidelity so you can get a quick snap-shot of some of the most popular image searches on Bing," Bing explains. "Once you click through to the ‘images’ page you will notice that we’ve populated the tabs with the most common search queries associated with a given image.  With one simple click, you can narrow down the images to find just what you’re looking for or be inspired to discover more."

Other recently added features to the Bing search engine include TV listings and sports ticketing information, as well as enhanced auto search results.
