Bing Adds Pinterest Images, Collections

Online search engine Bing has further tightened its links with online "pinning" site Pinterest, and said yesterday that it has started featuring pictures and collections from Pinterest on its search results. Bing had already allowed users to "pin" pictures it found on the search engine to Pinterest. The new feature lets users search for Pinterest collections alongside regular image search results. Bing, in an attempt to counter the dominance of Google, has been increasingly linking strategic partnerships with popular, third party sites, to deliver results and information from those sites via its search engine.
