During the episode of '' The Colbert Report '' that aired on June 8 , 2010 , Stephen Colbert stated that Microsoft would donate $ 2,500 to help clean up the Gulf oil spill each time he mentioned the word " Bing " on air . Colbert mostly mentioned Bing in out-of-context situations , such as Bing Crosby and Bing cherries . By the end of the show , Colbert had said the word 40 times , for a total donation of $ 100,000 . Colbert poked fun at their rivalry with Google , stating " Bing is a great website for doing Internet searches . I know that , because I Googled it . " Bing was added into the list of search engines available in Opera browser from v10 .6 , but Google remained the default search engine . Mozilla Firefox made a deal with Microsoft to jointly release " Firefox with Bing " , an edition of Firefox where Bing has replaced Google as the default search engine . The standard edition of Firefox has Google as its default search engine , but has included Bing in its list of search providers since Firefox version 4.0
