MSN Planning to Take on Google?
asyn42 writes "CNet is reporting what should be no surprise, Microsoft appears to be readying itself to take on Google for a position as the top search engine. The long range impact on the relationship between MSN and Yahoo/Inktomi is likely at risk."
Don't be cocky.
They said the same thing about Yahoo.
Microsoft Search Engine Searches YOU!
:(
oh, wait, this is really true
Sigs are dangerous coy things
If someone told me they were going to google something I'd slap them upside their stupid little noggin. "Search" is the word you're *ahem* googling for people. See? That's stupid isn't it?
The cutesifying of language is reprehensible. Nobody I know says their going to google unless they mean that they're typing "www.google.com" in their address bar at that very moment. Real people perform google searches.
It's notable that this functionality is customizable.
Please tell me how, b/c this isn't entirely obvious from the user interface options.
