M$ Points

[miketheknife]

So I don't get points for searching what I want to search, only the couple of searches they want me to run?

I mean this is great, don't get me wrong, but how long are they going to keep paying people to click on a couple of links and not do anything with them? I got rewards for searching on local events, mexican food restaurants, and 'calories in chocolate ice cream'.

I guess it's an experiment to see whether it's really viable or not.

Hey they got my traffic away from Google. I mean I'm going to be searching a lot and being tracked anyway why not get paid for it.

Everybody knows about your Ngata-As-Circus-Clown-Anal-Rape fetish anyway.

They have one going where you get 1 credit for every 5 searches, up to 10 credits a day. I've found that clicking on the related searches to the left counts.

Took me roughly a minute to get 10 credits.

You get points on your searches up to a certain number per time period (few days i think).

In my experience, they are pretty slow at issuing you your rewards. Domo hit 500 points back before the last CoD map pack came out and ordered 400 M$ points. We still don't have them.

I ordered mine on Friday so I could get Trenched, they came Monday. Check spam filter to see if they got hung up.

You get 1 point for every 5 searches, up to 12 points a day on Bing rewards. Also, every couple of days they throw up links worth points. They use to be 12 points but they dropped down to 6, and usually there are 3 links.
So on the link days, you could earn 30 points

Don't you also have to download that bar thing?

I didn't

And it only took me a day to get my points last time

[JohnnyHustler]

I got 19 for the day. 10 credits for 50 searches, and 3 each for the 3 links they put up.

That sucks. I wonder why you can only get 10 points and I can get 12 points. And your links are only worth 3 points?!?!?!?

Yup. I wonder if it has anything to do with the browser I'm using. Are you using IE or Firefox?

Well, that throws out any "bonus for using IE" theory.
