Bing is attempting to differentiate itself with a nicer "reference"
page. Wikipedia quote at the top. (We're famous enough now that I
could say "of course.")
The search up top says "Search Wikipedia". The thing that caught my
eye in the article (and the results) was it actually searches Freebase
as well!
Unfortunately best I can tell their version of enhanced wikipedia is
basically
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Popups
Plus some of the new Babaco features (outline of sections on the right side) :)
(which is, to be fair, is something I *really* like -- try it out via
preferences -> editing -> experimental features).
