Free Ice Cream from Bing for Londoners This summer

[Starbuck]

Microsoft has quite a nice treat for people in London this summer. The Redmond company will hand out free ice cream throughout June 2010 across the capital of the United Kingdom. Londoners better keep an eye out for the Bing van, which will travel the city and offer free ice cream to help them better deal with the heat of the summer. Microsoft is even making it easy for users to follow the Bing Ice Cream Van Tour and actually get their hands on some free ice cream, by posting the locations that the van will visit on Bing Maps.

 

“During the whole month of June, a Bing ice cream van will be touring London and handing out lollies across the capital. Make sure that you get your hands (and tongue) on one,” Microsoft’s Cedric Chambaz revealed. “This Bing Map will tell you where and when the bell will be tolling.”

 

At the start of this month, Bing turned one year old. While Microsoft’s efforts in search go further back than Bing, it has already been one year since the Redmond company dumped Live Search and overhauled its search engine entirely, launching what it referred to as a decision engine.

I know what you mean Nev,

London is a 5 hour drive for me..... 5 hours for a free ice cream? ... i don't think so.

So i guess an 12-hour flight is out of the question for a free ice cream ;)
