Microsoft Declares War on Google
Well, they already have given OS Chrome. But now they're playing dirty like the ongoing war between Apple and MS.
This is just a clip I picked up. In simple terms, MS is trying to make deals with major media groups to block all content from Google Search. This is no joke. Guess MS is aiming to make "Bing the King". view link
"News Corp. and Microsoft are reportedly in "early stage talks" to cut an exclusive deal that would prevent Google from indexing the media conglomerate's news Websites some of which include The Wall Street Journal, The New York Post and others. The deal will allegedly give Microsoft's Bing search engine the exclusive rights to deliver search results and news pages with New Corp. content, according to The Financial Times . The report also says that Microsoft has approached other unnamed major Web publishers to cut similar deals."
Guess we might need to change our default search engine to Dogpile, which consolidates search results from Google, Bing, Yahoo and Ask.
Personally, I find this practice totally reprehensible in spades.
Who wins: Who knows?
Who suffers: Us
