After one month since it’s public release, Microsoft have decided to integrate their search engine Bing into Hotmail. The move will give users the option of adding Bing image and video search results directly into Hotmail messages.

As reported from ChannelRegister, users who log into their hotmail accounts will now see a ‘Quick Add’ tab, which gives you the choice of putting images or videos into your messages.

It’s quite a neat idea from Microsoft, and a logical one too we add. At the moment, the new service is only available to Australia, Canada, China, India, the US and the UK so far. Expect Microsoft to extend that list further though, if it turns out a success.

Let us know what you think of the Bing and Hotmail combo.
