In my Microsoft-only web diet, I’ve been pleasantly enjoying Microsoft Search. While some of the results are a little wacky (e.g. I was searching for the Microsoft Empower program yesterday and all I got were old links to the Irish and UK Empower pages – which were no longer active), it’s been generally very effective and I didn’t really notice any functional difference from Google.
However, Microsoft Search seems to have been down for the better part of the morning.
So – I had to break my diet and use Google for the last few hours of searches. Fortunately, in Firefox, it’s really easy to change the search engine used.
