Rumours are currently flying around that Microsoft is creating its own search engine. Although they own one of the largest search sites in the world at MSN, they don't, oddly enough have their own search engine - MSN is powered by Inktomi, Looksmart and Overture. If you'd like more information, you can check out their FAQ for the MSNBOT at http://search.msn.com/msnbot.htm Also of interest is the fact that Microsoft is hiring for a couple of people to work in this area - if you want to be one of them, toddle along to their Hiring page and apply. Otherwise, await developments with interest!
