I just tested out Search Results Clustering toolbar, an upcoming feature of MSN search and I must say that I have never been so impressed by a search engine. It's like discovering a search engine for the first time.

I can safely say that the future of search is here. Don't believe me? Try it for yourself and you will never have to think of keywords again (See link below).

It's like a search engine that cares about only one thing: providing answers to you.

According to sandbox.msn.com, Search Results Clustering, or SRC technique clusters the results of a search engine into different groups, and provides meaningful and readable names for these groups called clusters. SRC is set to change the traditional search results to greatly facilitate the searcher's browsing.

Thanks for the link.
In my niche SRC looks very impressive
And folks say Microsoft does not know how to innovate.
Google, beware!
