In preparation for tomorrow's Super Tuesday primaries, Bing rolled out a new tool that determines the top-searched candidates.
Bing is gearing up for tomorrow’s Super Tuesday state primaries with the launch of its new “Search Wave” feature, a search tool that showcases search volume for each of this year’s presidential candidates.
