New MSN search engine doing technology preview

[digitalpoint]

Looks like MSN is doing a internal technology preview. Of course, no one can get to it because it's restricted by IP address, but still shows they are at least at the point of being able to test it.

http://techpreview.search.msn.com/
http://techpreview.search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=msn

Both the search and results page are restricted by IP address (as expected).

I'm just going to have to say I'm honored that you used it on me... lol. I figured you wouldn't make a big deal out of it, but thought maybe, just maybe we'd see a thesis on how search engines actually work. ;)

Actually I didn't even know until you said something. :)
