What is Google-fu?
Google-fu is one's ability to Google things, i.e. to search for things using Google, specially by using the correct search terms and advanced features like search operators. The term seems to come from the word Google and kung-fu.

With the rise of Bing, the Google-Fu master now has a yin to their yang.

There is no official term for a master of Bing, that I am aware of (possibly no masters exist yet). So, I have coined the term “Bing-Do”, to compliment the “Google-Fu” terminology already being used.
