I just watched Microsoft's Computex presentation where they demoed Windows 8.1, they displayed many new features, my favourite being a completely revamped global search function! This allows Bing's 'Decision Engine' to interpret exactly what you are searching for and collect information from the web, your computer and apps in one single collected view which almost looks like a rich application in itself (all from accessing the search charm.) And then. It got me thinking...
Windows 8.1 borrow from the Windows phone operating system in certain regards (new small live tile sizes) so Microsoft could potentially bring certain Windows 8.1 features to Windows Phone in the forthcoming Windows Phone 8.1 update, and I would LOVE to see a the global search function powered by Bing come to Windows Phone! Currently Bing search is very limited if you are in a region other than the US, and so it excites me that it could be scaled up in terms of functionality and usefulness that can be brought to all.
What features from Windows 8.1 would you like Microsoft to try and implement in Windows Phone 8.1? ARE YOU EXCITED FOR THE UPDATE?! :grin:
