Qi Lu, President of Online Services - Bing, was named as #10 in Fast Company magazine's 100 Most Creative People in Business 2010.

Even though Qi didn't beat out Lady Gaga or the creator of Glee for the top spot, this holder of 20 U.S. patents won his high ranking for inventiveness (while Lady Gaga's outfits are inventive, really, how many patents can she claim?).

Fast Company wrote, "Spurning the antiquated practice of releasing new updates every couple of years, Lu is creating an environment where live-cycle updates and product improvements are constant." Maybe that doesn't sound as colorful as an episode of Glee, but the television show can't even start to rival the number of people who use Bing on a daily basis - and use Bing for so much more than just entertainment.
