  • jetcopter, on 05/10/2008, -2/+6Oh, Microsoft is going to set up own search business? Do you know anything about Microsoft? Ever hear of something called MSN or maybe Live Search? MSN has been around for several years and Live a few already.
    • victorycig, on 05/11/2008, -0/+2Yeah, I'm confused about this. I thought MSN was a search engine, and then they came out with Live, and now this...
      They seem to do this frequently--release a product or service and then decide to change their strategy for it and release a new, similar product that competes in the same market...
  • MookiBlaylock, on 05/10/2008, -8/+3Funny how Gates is made out to be a good guy now a days. Of course when he gives millions of dollars to third world countries it's hard to hate the guy.
  • Sil369, on 05/10/2008, -2/+1I thought this was an Onion article.
  • eminiguy, on 05/10/2008, -4/+2Good for you, Macabrosoft! Good for you!

    Try some innovation for a change and you may be surprised how well it works. It may literally do wonders for you and may even make you a few fanboys in the process too.
  • sirhomer, on 05/10/2008, -3/+2Microsoft already has a search engine. Buried as inaccurate.
  • Ramzy, on 05/11/2008, -1/+1I love users who comment on stories based only on the title and description. Had you clicked the link, you would have seen the first line:

    "Microsoft Corporation will focus on growing its own advertising and Internet search business after it withdrew its takeover offer for Yahoo, chairman Bill Gates said yesterday."
