Instant Answers and Visual Search galleries are given the winter games treatment.

Microsoft is an official partner of NBC for the Olympics. With that, Bing is offering up new search features to make it super-easy for you to find Winter Olympics-related info. The 2010 winter games begin this Friday in Vancouver!

One of Bing’s best features is its Instant Answers. They’re harnessing the power of this awesome feature for the Winter Olympics.

Here’s what you get when you search simply for “winter olympics.”

Search for an athlete, such as snowboarder Kelly Clark, for more Instant Answers:

Bing has also launched two new galleries to their Visual Search, both related to the Winter Olympics. One for athletes and one for sports.

Previously, Bing released Streetside imagery for Vancouver and Whistler. Bing is also powering the search over at NBCOlympics.com.
