    Actually, that's quite clever for the average user. It's detected that there's a term that is probably used by more searchers and returned details for those first, while still allowing you to go to the "misspelled" version (yes, I know it's not really misspelled but Bing thinks it might be).

        It doesn't happen if I search with default location i.e. India[^] But If I go to the location preference and change to US it happens, that's weired

          If you use the "United States - english" version you get Blog results for an nlog search but the others return correct results for nlog.

            Yup, it returns nlog stuff for me too in the UK.

              If I type in gritter (default location set to United Kingdom), I get lots of results for glitter. Now, I can appreciate that nlog isn't really a word, but gritter is.

                    It'd probably be brocked.

                      That's a feature. :)
