Bing has launched Insights for Office. “It can use the words from your entire document (or also those you select) to pinpoint exactly what you are looking for. With the help of this context, we are able to rank the most relevant result at the top.

The results are also prioritized by relevance, including Snapshot, Wikipedia, Bing Image Search, and related web content to help find what you need.” So it’s using your entire document for search context, which assuming privacy issues have been ironed out, is quite clever. Good morning, Internet…
