Microsoft on Thursday expanded the partnership between its Bing search engine and Facebook by adding Facebook "likes" to any URL returned by its search engine in the U.S.
As a result, friends' "likes" will be integrated into Bing search results. If you search for hotels in Napa, for instance, you'll see the regular list of search results, but you might also see your friends' Facebook photos under certain returns (below) with a note that says they have liked this particular hotel on Facebook.
"If your friends have publicly liked or shared any of the algorithmic search results shown on Bing, we will now surface them right below the result," the Bing team wrote in a blog post.
Thursday's announcement expands upon an October partnership between Facebook and Bing that promoted links that friends "liked" or shared via Facebook.
