Microsoft No Longer "more evil than satan", says MSN Search

If Satan himself came up to you on the street and says, "I am not Satan", would you believe him? Of course you would. That is exactly what MSN Search is trying to tell us now, that MicroSoft is no longer "more evil than Satan".



MSN Search just pushed out their latest round of automated relevance improvements and they changed the results. Now neither Google nor Microsoft rank in the top 10 any more for this particular query. Quote "[their] algorithm changed its mind".
"Just so you know (since I’m sure you’ll ask), this wasn’t a targeted change. We are constantly refining our ranking algorithms to produce the best, most accurate results, so changes like this happen all the time."
Nick does not believe it, thinks it is just a PR stunt.
"I just cant help thinking that all this is just designed to get tons of search related blogs posting about MSN every 5mins...



I'll be damned if i'll have the TW homepage and rss feed choked with this silliness, it's boring the crap out of me already."
Let me be one of the first to blog about Nick. LOL. And one other thing:

If thine RSS feed offends thee, pluck it out.
