Bing Video Search Gets Fancy New Features For A Better User Experience

Bing are giving their video search results a much  needed makeover and users of the site will find larger video thumbnails, extra  search filters and pop out hover previews part of the new package. In an  announcement via their blog, the company promised the new  streamlined navigation would lead to a better browsing experience for the video  content it pulls in via YouTube and Vimeo as well as from Dailymotion, Hulu, Vevo, CBS,  MTV and MSN amongst others.

Bing wants to provide a “completely re-imagined search experience” for video  so let’s take a look at some of the new upgrades:

Improved Navigation and Video Overlay Features

The new video overlay tweak allows users to multitask by continuing to browse  through their search results whilst currently watching a video. Bing have also  introduced a side bar of ‘related videos’ to provide the user with more relevant  results.

Larger Video Thumbnails For Easier Recognition

New larger thumbnails should make it much easier for users to scan through  videos until they find the one they want.

Pop-out Hover Previews Keep Users On Bing Longer

Rather than take you off site to see whether the video you have chosen is the  one you want, the new pop out hover preview allows you to see just that. Bing  have provided much more information regarding the video (favicons from the top  sites, descriptions, view counts etc). There is also a new volume control  feature.
