Google's Business Model Works, MSN Launches
Google has a great service and line of products that are making a lot of money.
The Mountain View-based company reported Tuesday that its fourth-quarter profit improved sevenfold from the previous year, much to Wall Street's delight. Investors appeared ready to push Google's stock to a new high when trading begins Wednesday on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
While the MSN search engine is impressive it is still a step behind Google. In addition, being first to the market and having an innovative line of products and services in the pipeline should keep Google at the top (for now). However, I do like the search results via Feed/RSS feature. A new &format=rss parameter added to the end of any search will allow you to receive those search results via RSS. And this is cool: What is the population of USA?
What may be of significance to bloggers is what Microsoft promises for the future:
Blog Search: MSN has promised to do this, something that no major search engine yet offers. When might it come? Nothing to announce yet, Payne said.The engine of the future will be the one providing consumers greater accessibility to the information they want through easy intelligent searches and websites greater opportunity to reach both relevant and new audiences.
