Bing 2.0 debuts; Microsoft adds Wolfram Alpha – Stephen Wolfram talks about Wolfram|Alpha and Bing

Microsoft is rolling out major updates to Bing search enigne, that includes enhancements to search engine's "hover preview" feature, and will also add more local results for weather and events, and an overhauled Bing Shopping site. A Microsoft representative said, features'll be rolled out gradually and won't be fully available to everyone for several weeks.
