On Bing.com today you will find a nice smooth HTML5 enabled video background theme for the first day of fall. The video is of the Grand Teton National Park over a period of time, speed up, obviously.

Here is a video screen cast of the Bing home page:

We know Bing has been testing HTML5 interfaces for their search engines and I think anyone with an HTML5 supported browser should be able to see the video home page today on Bing US.

Amit Agarwal notes the video is a 13-second long video file that is 1.9MB, and shared the link to the original MP4 video file.

I think this is pretty cool? What do you think?

Meanwhile, Google, Yahoo, Ask.com and Dogpile do not have any logo for the first day of fall.
