Blog Post: Oprah's Favorite Things on Bing: An intro to Visual Search Gallery

Last week, Bing and partner Donorschoose.org were featured on Oprah's very last Favorite Things episode.  The Favorite Things episode is the most-watched, most talked-about Oprah show of the year, and this one was no exception. The massive episode was split over two days, and our $1,000,000 Bing Gives campaign with giving partner Donorschoose.org was called out on Monday.

In honor of the Gives campaign, and our relationship with Oprah and Donorschoose, we created a Visual Search Gallery of Oprah's Favorite Things over the years. If you're not familiar with Bing's Visual Search Gallery, it's a great feature that sorts images under common themes, making image search customizable and incredibly useful.  Here is Oprah's Favorite Things Visual Search Gallery:

Pretty slick. But here's the fun part. Click on the top navigation bar, and sort her Favorite Things (FTs) by price range. Say you are struggling with a present for a wife, or a relative. Click on the price range you're aiming for ($1-50, $50-100, $100-250, $250-500), and you get an instant result of all the FTs in that range. Click on the product and you'll be able to purchase that item through Bing's Shopping platform.

 

Short on time with your holiday shopping? Hit the "Last Minute Items" and get something shipped that day!

 

Feel free to explore our other Visual Search galleries. See who the most popular Twitter users are. Sort the Periodic Table of Elements with ease. View all the Our School Needs entries. How about finding out which dog breeds are hypoallergenic? Or maybe you just want a way to keep track of all of Lady Gaga's outfits!
