We know Google's main competitor in search engine is Bing. However bing is not much widely used by people across the globe but still they have shown a good rise by creating partnership with the social networking King "Facebook".
So Recently Bing has added a new feature in its search by letting users to search Facebook photos within the search engine. Users can access this via Bing social sidebar or by visiting www.bing.com/friendsphotos.When you use Bing search engine to browse photos, you will get results arranged in Pinterest-style waterfall layout, as in the image shown above.
Being that Facebook has over 900 million users, and has the largest photo database on the Internet, it is a huge ocean of information to tap into that currently is very difficult to navigate. Facebook as a whole tremendously lacks what Google excels at: search. Searching for anything on Facebook is clunky at best. That is where Bing comes in. They are able to give Facebook what they cannot do for themselves.
Bing has also taken care of users' privacy, as it only lists photos that have been made public or viewable to friends by a user. Once users access this tool, images appear as a news feed, showing the most recent picture uploaded first. This tool also lets users comment, like and share Facebook photos, within the search engine.
