Bing's positioning exercise

Interesting take on how JWT combatted Google with their Bing campaign.

While I don't know how Bing is a better "decision" engine than Google, I appreciate the delineation between "search" and "decide". It also touched on the challenge to sort through the infinity of search results any novice Google user can face. Decide is a much more powerful evocative word.

This is a good example of competitive positioning, especially against a brand such as Google, whose public reputation is almost beyond reproach. As long as the product pays it off, failure won't be for lack of good positioning.
