I suppose they've got to do something to be different It's a blessing and a curse for MSN, spam could develop into a problem of they don't have people checking for spammy sites. So far, spam isn't a problem because everyone seems to build for google.
I think they just don't care, Microsoft has lots of other things to be worried of.., like Windows Vista
MSN is so nice indeed. 90% of my site http://www.best-personal-loan-rate.co.uk 's traffic is from MSN..!!
Not only do I get great traffic from MSN but as a user I prefer MSN for a search.. Much more rellevant
MSN hits have skyrocketed for me. I'd get like 2-3 hits per day, now it's up to 30-35. Not much, but if the trend continues I'll be happy.
MSN is nice but they still have a long way to go to catch up with Google. They still have duplicate content sites showing that Google would axe. Bill Has the money so I know it is only a matter of time till MSN can compete head to head with Google.
I think MicroSoft is the only company with the resources to take on google. I hope MS gives them a run for the money
