Facebook no longer shows Bing search results

Now, when users search Facebook, results from Microsoft's Bing search engine will no longer display alongside results from within the social network. Facebook has confirmed the change as it is revamping its own search to allow users to find content hosted by the social network.

Retuers reported the change, stating:

"We're not currently showing web search results in Facebook Search because we're focused on helping people find what's been shared with them on Facebook," a company spokesperson told Reuters. "We continue to have a great partnership with Microsoft in lots of different areas."
