Earlier this week Digg decided to give Google the boot and instead hire a company who they labeled as “young and willing to take risks” (you mean our Microsoft?)…
I am not sure what it is but I am feeling a good vibe from Microsoft these days. They improve, innovate, invent, they are everything that Google […]
Ever since Google released Google Analytics as a free tool it became the tool of choice for many site operators, and offered Google to add more data mining opportunities. MSN saw the opportunity and has been developing its own Analytics took offered as a direct competition to Google.
The project, titled Gatineau (for now), will […]
As ASK is getting ready for the launch of ASKEraser, its anonymous search tool due out soon, it joined forces with MSN in an effort to create an “industry standard” to better protect consumer privacy. The two, who are more of the “market followers” in the industry joined yesterday and proposed a project which would […]
MSN/LIVE continues growing with almost 64% growth last month. This growth from 8.4% to 13.2% of the total search queries performed last month comes in place of Google who lost more than 7% off its total search volume.
I believe that these numbers are to grow even further with Microsoft claiming more and more machines back […]
Did Microsoft decide to drop their current search technology and start from scratch? A recent report from TechCrunch mentions that Microsoft has gathered a team of twenty or more “rock star” developers who’ve been tasked at building their next generation search engine.
According to their source, this is a new “very cool”, “horizontal” engine which will […]
Last week we wrote about MSN UK pre-populating its search box with different terms. In its official statement MSN states that the terms listed were “of-the-day” terms with no preferences towards one term or another.
Your comments on the initiative were pretty unequivocal - ‘Every time I log in, ‘The Apprentice BBC’ is in my search […]
Last week, the rumors across the web linked Microsoft to a $2 billion bid for the ad network DoubleClick. Today, new rumors tie Google to the bid race as well. Google’s spokesman said the company does not comment on “market rumor or speculation.”
If this is true and Google will win this bis it may get […]
Many conspiracy theorists woke up this morning to an interesting phenomena. It seems as if MSN UK has been per-populating it’s search box all day long. It started with “The Apprentice BBC” and now shows “Euro 2008 Results.”
While many have been trying to guess how much the BBC paid MSN, I am tend to believe […]
Microsoft’s fairly new Live.com is now speaking the holy language… As YNet reports this morning, the Hebrew version includes translated user interface as well as menus. The language selection and SERPs are aligned to the right (Hebrew reads right-to-left) and that surfers who search for Hebrew terms will have an option to search Hebrew only […]
Microsoft seems to be in the news today… I’ve already posted about their spam paper and possible Comcast deal and now I read that:
Microsoft partnered with Lenovo Forge who will now install the Live.com toolbar and homepage on all their shipped systems.
Microsoft to pay firms for staff usage of Live.com.
