Microsoft must be really into Halloween this year, as they've relesaed two "Halloween oriented" commercials for their latest search engine, Bing.
The first advertisement, which we told you about earlier this week, features the latest craze for "tweens" everywhere a Vampire. The latest commercial, entitled Haunted Hotel, was inspired by the great Stanley Kubrick film, The Shining. Below is the description that accompanies the video on YouTube:
"You know what they say- all searching and no deciding makes the Web a dull place. And a confusing one as well, from the look of things. Don't get lost in the search overload maze: use Bing."
So, what did you think of the latest Bing commercial? Tell us what you think.

Bing Shinning Commercial...
I laughed at the commercial. I loved the movie and the take-off of it was very funny and amusing for sure. Thought it was very clever for a search engine commercial. At least I waited till it was over before I got up for a snack :-)

I found the Shining Bing
I found the Shining Bing commercial rather amusing. That could be since I like the movie so much. The commercial must be doing its job, since there are lots of people discussing it.
