Bing Translate is actually better than Google Translate in my experience. Especially for east asian languages translation. It's one of the hidden gems that I though is under-utilize by Microsoft.
I hope Microsoft open up the Bing platform more to devs. That'll be a huge opportunity for Microsoft to ever compete with Google.
Without Bing, Google would have a monopoly in search in almost every country in the world. Monopolies never turn out well. We should all hope that Bing is here to stay and that Microsoft continues to funnel dollars into creating a competitive search market.

Wow, how the tides have turned! 15 years ago was:
s/Google/Microsoft s/Microsoft/Linux s/Bing/Linux
I never would have predicted somebody cheering for "Microsoft the underdog."
