Microsoft’s Bing Logo Leaked By Way Of Favicon?

,----[ Quote ]
| This favicon, which again, may only be a part of the logo, also looks a lot 
| like the logo for Blinkx, the video search engine. That features a red 
| lowercase “b” with an eye in the middle. See them side-by-side below.

Microsoft to launch last ditch search effort

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft can attempt to be a sumo with Kumo, have a fling with Bing, but in
| search Google will remain king. Ouch - sorry about that, it's late at night
| here.

More Microsoft Live Search Bribery

,----[ Quote ]
| Just using Microsoft online services isn't enough to get your ticket punched,
| though. You must run Internet Explorer (6.0 or higher) when you use those
| services. Even visiting getsearchperks.com with Firefox or Opera is a futile
| exercise; you will have to start IE to see what goodies the site has to
| offer. Oh, and if you sign up you'll have to install the Perk Counter toolbar
| to let Microsoft keep track of your tickets.

A Microsoft Midlife Crisis?

,----[ Quote ]
| Is Microsoft undergoing a midlife crisis? The software titan's recent mergers
| and acquisitions track record suggests as much. In an attempt to keep up with
| Google and other Web 2.0 stars, Microsoft looks as if it is getting pushed
| around at the bargaining table. The latest act of profligacy came yesterday
| when it paid a whopping premium to acquire Fast Search & Transfer for $1.2
| billion.
