Topic: Bing App

Listeners report significant issues with Windows-based podcast applications like Slapdash Pro and Bing Cast, which contain multiple incorrect or broken RSS feeds. Attempts to manually add functional feeds often fail due to poor application design or lack of developer support, with some feedback emails bouncing immediately. The reliance on centralized app directories is identified as a primary point of failure for distributed media like podcasting.

Microsoft's new Bing search app for Windows 8 is marketed as a "reimagined search experience" for tablets. The app features "finger-friendly" hotspots and a snap feature for multitasking, though critics mock the high-energy sales pitch and the app's reliance on Wikipedia for results.
