June 8, 2009
Please don’t awe me…
I just write this blog out of my curiosity about search engines. I’ve been an affiliate a few months by Homepages Friends – a search engine that monetize you every time you search. But if I am not satisfied with the search results, I used Yahoo!, Ask, and my all-time favorite Google. I seldom used MSN Search for my queries. But after Microsoft launched the new version of MSN Search, now known as Bing – I tried.
