I’ve been floating from web internet tool to web internet tool for years.
But that all changed when I started to play around withBing Chat.
Bing Chat is built into Sidebar but you can also add ChatGPT for quick access, too.
Initially, this was why I started dabbling withMicrosoft Edgeagain.
I’m obsessed with it.
But through this I discovered what I’d been missing with the Sidebar.
Bing Chat is built into Sidebar but you can also add ChatGPT for quick access, too.
Hoo boy, where has this been all my life.
That means having Slack open in a tab, Twitter, our analytics tools, and so on.
The Sidebar allows me to dispense with several of these tabs by adding these sites to it.
Bing Chat any time. Or all the time.
But better than just being a quick bookmark, it means I can see two things at once.
I can have analytics open while looking through live content on the site.
I can check Twitter quickly while also reading email.
Viewing Windows Central in Sidebar because why not?
Or, more dangerously, I can buy things on Amazon at any point without shifting too much focus.
You get the idea.
Switching tabs is fine, but it always disrupts my focus.
I don’t feel like I’m losing focus by utilizing it.
The obvious tool is quick access to Bing Chat, but there’s much more than that.
If the unit converter could also handle currency, I’d be using that regularly, too.
Some of the features I can take or leave, like Shopping or Skype.
But they can be turned off as well, so it’s hardly a big deal.

Microsoft made Edge great again
It’s impossible to hey all the people all the time.
And I’m still not really a fan of the absolute push to ensure Windows users are using it.
you’ve got the option to say the same of Drop as well.
FirstBing Chat made me ditch Google searchfor good, now Microsoft has won me back to Edge.
Even for grizzly old cynics like me.
