Microsoft Pushes Search Technology to Market Amid Stiff Competition

 
Nov 25, 2004
So now Microsoft has declared it's going head to head with Google with its own Web search technology, hoping to challenge Google's long dominance of the field with results tailored to a user's location and answers from its Encarta encyclopedia.

Google signaled that it's ready for a fight, announcing that it would nearly double the amount of Web pages available to search through its site.

The Microsoft search engine, offered in 11 languages, will initially be available on a special "test" site. Adam Sohn, a director with the company's online division says that gradually, some users visiting Microsoft's MSN site may find that the existing search bar uses the new search engine. But a full rollout, perhaps with new features, isn't expected until early next year.

Okay, who here is ready to bet on a winner?
