Windows Live Search is the new buzz name for MSN search.
Live Search was out of beta few days back in US and UK, still awaiting the local search features made available for India. Live Search has started powering MSN homepage. There is no much talk about the new Live. I tried the new search features couple of days back.
The results were far better than last time I tried MSN Search. There is been lot improvements happening I guess 🙂
The new Windows Live Search allows for far more customization, control and accuracy than ever before and is now a lean mean searching machine with many new features such as the ability to determine how much information you want displayed on your query results and the new in-site search.
Microsoft Search has improved lot in feature-wise and is trying to capture the search engine market which is today lead by search engine giants Google and Yahoo!

Hey man, how would you compare it to similar and more mature searching tools?
I was trying to compare since it had a good healthy competition at times.
Am not planning to leave my clutter-free Google search ! 🙂
Microsoft has stopped being innovative and is just copying. Just try the new IE7 and you will know (with tabbed browsing and stuff)
clutter-free??? i can’t agree with that statement… hmmm… i can agree partially with that….!!!! not fully… Microsoft has been innovative at times!:)
