Last week, it was recipes. This week, it’s finance. And Mars. The Bing team has partnered with the Pacific Science Center in Seattle to teach kids about Mars. And, it seems, teach kids to use Bing at the same time.
Microsoft’s “Captain Mike’s Mars Adventure” site was launched in conjunction with the “Facing Mars” exhibit opening Saturday at the Science Center. On the Web site, kids have to answer questions about Mars by searching on Bing. The goal is to tell Captain Mike enough about Mars so he can go on his space mission.
