Bing made an unconventional move today and changed its homepage image midday, switching from its initial image of Boston’s Bunker Hill Bridge to a photo of Boston Marathon runners with fans cheering them on, and two BostonStrong flags waving in the foreground.
To start the day, Bing tweeted the following picture of its homepage:
Beyond this bridge is TD Garden, home of the @NHLBruins and the @Celtics. http://t.co/Tp49Png2n0 pic.twitter.com/sS4STPvJaU� Bing (@bing) April 21, 2014
Later in the day, Bing announced it had changed its homepage image with the following tweet:
We don’t usually change the homepage in the middle of the day, but today we couldn’t resist. http://t.co/Tp49Png2n0 pic.twitter.com/105EPg6rAc� Bing (@bing) April 21, 2014
The image honoring the Boston Marathon and runners included links to race-related searches highlighting today’s winners of the men’s title and the wheelchair division, as well as a links to Boston’s connection to Patriot Day, and Boston Marathon history.
Postscript: This story was updated to include Bing’s first homepage image for the day.
