According to this article by Read Write Web, Bing have exclusive access to the data created by Facebook user status updates and Google have access to the data from Facebook fan page updates. It’s interesting to see that this data is so highly valued that there is clearly a bidding war over access to certain types of data. Which is more valuable?
