| And... | It's one area of search that Google has yet to dominate, which is one reason Microsoft sees it as an opportunity. |
| Microsoft seems to be a bit active these days. They've got something brewing. Ya, while it may be a home brew, who knows, it could be the Killer brew. Watch out Google. ;) How Microsoft is trying to make its $1.3b Fast Search deal work 2009-02-10 - [techflash.com...] ^ Man, is that one of the longer uglier URIs I've seen. And in tech too. Stop it already! :(

They do have an edge on Google in this area, and this is a market that does pay for its tech solutions. I guess they're working to move beyond the problems this acquisition has presented MS [webmasterworld.com]. ;)
