Another link that appears in Bing is Qwiki. This has a voice reading out
the leads of Wikipedia articles, accompanied by related images.

Example:  http://www.qwiki.com/q/Doris_Lessing

http://searchengineland.com/bing-britannica-partnership-123930

Qwiki also enables users to create their own multimedia presentations.
