Want to get all the details on your favorite celebrity? Live Search's Celebrity search results combine top content into a single, interactive answer, providing content from images, video, movies, bios, and more. The celebrity's xRank is also intergrated into the results to provide a measure of popularity. xRank is a fun way to track celebrities' rises and falls in the rankings. Based on the number of searches throughout the day, xRank gives a numerical rating for the most popular of Hollywood heavyweights, radio darlings, trendsetters, athletes, politicians, and other notables.
It's "Hot or Not" for search results. On the Celebrity xRank page, you can not only do searches for celebrities, but you can also scan the rankings, read bios, track trends, and see related celebs (the celebrity's friends, family, co-workers, enemies, and romantic interests). Icons next to a celebrity's name show whether the celebrity is Trending up - popularity is increasing (green up arrow), slipping down - popularity is decreasing (red down arrow), rocketing up - popularity is soaring (green up arrow with flames), or plummeting down (red down arrow towards a black hole). What do you think of Live Searhc's celebrity search feature? Do a head to head comparison like I did for one of my favorite celebs and compare the results. In my case, I actually preferred Live Search's results. Do you?

I like all of Live Search's integrated extras, like Instant Answers, realtime traffic, weather things, and all that stuff that appears on the search results page.
However, some people don't like that, and just simply want a clean page, with the web results.
I wish Live Search made it an option for users if they want to see all these extras on the search page, instead of making it come by default.
It's nice, but not everybody wants it.
