My apologies but because N4G does not support .bmp formats i had to google for Kumo and that's one of the pictures i got for it but it's completely unrelated to the search engine. heh :(

terrandragon6292d ago

So, is this just an organized Google? Sorry, I didn't bother reading it.

Lord Anubis6292d ago

this will summarize their intents:

"In spite of the progress made by search engines, 40 percent of queries go unanswered; half of queries are about searchers returning to previous tasks; and 46 percent of search sessions are longer than 20 minutes. These and many other learnings suggest that customers often don't find what they need from search today."

google > everything else.

Sorry MS. You're out of your league.

TheIneffableBob6292d ago

Microsoft Live's image search is actually very good. Better than Google's.

YoMeViet6292d ago

hey if it better or somewhat rival google then bring it on, but if it lags behind then you developers better go back to your cubicles and start over!

They should just focus on Windows 7, their search engine has sucked since forever.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit25d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing25d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9225d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
