Microsoft Somewhat Less of a Failure in Search

So, that Microsoft-Yahoo search deal? It's kind of working a little bit! With Bing now running Yahoo, Microsoft's consumer-search market-share numbers now seem, at least, to be marginally less pathetic than they used to be. Keep on foisting that sword at those windmills, Don Microxofte.

Oh, by the way, while Microsoft was looking slightly less non-competitive in consumer search, Google came out with some sort of instant-search thing that's supposed to make searching faster than thinking (or, at least, faster than typing).
