I went to search for the Overture bid tool, and found that Overture had been completely removed from Google.

site:www.overture.com -sdfsdf brings nothing

and even a search for "overture" doesn't bring up the overture homepage.

Has it been this way for a while, or is this new?

...eventually had to use Yahoo to find the page on Overture I was looking for.

Maybe Google did it because they are a competitor? Or maybe this is similar to the microsoft thing?

Doesn't make sense that overture would remove themselves.
