me thinks that M$ getting in the middle of this could be the rapid end of "googlizing".

Yes, all the MSN people would end up there, but that wouldn't make up for all the people who would run away at high speed.

Anybody have any ideas what is next? :-)

I heard it was all bullshit.

But Gates says Microsoft is developing its own technology, not looking to buy Google's. "We made that decision a year ago," he says. Microsoft demonstrated a prototype at the show.

Actually, I think they can compeate.
I mean... All google would have to do is move the paid spots from the right side to above the regular listings and it would be over. Half the reason I use google would be gone.
