I think they are better suited trying to make their own software bug-free first

"Search results tailored to individual users based on a history of their interests and searches is one area that Microsoft is looking at, Koenigsbauer said."
This exactly what I do not want in a search engine.
I am familiar with my past and present interests and have seen the sites in my search history. It would be more beneficial for me to have new sites come up with new searches along with those past visited.
The very thing I found intriguing about the internet was the vast array of information and sources previously unavailable to me.
There is no need to pigeonhole each user and narrow the scope of their search for sites related to any given subject.

BOOOOOOO!

Actually, I can see why this would be good technology. Of course, it'd have to be able to be turned on/off.What if you don't remember that one site you need to get to? You didn't bookmark the website. You can't find it, for whatever reason. Turn on this tech and there ya go, it searchs and gives you results based on sites you've been to.

Geez, how much can possibly be done with a simple search feature??
I think Google has the lockdown on it though, regardless of what can or cant be done.

Why not use History then? I agree with ZOXXO, wouldn't like to have a search engine to have a feature like that.

I'm sure it would have a feature to clear the database so your parents wouldn't know you've been looking at h0t squirel pr0n again.

...and I was hoping to sell them my own technology. I call it aircoogle. Microsoft would get a request for a search, then call me on an analog phone with the search query. I then search google and relay the information back to microsoft via email who then gives the results to the searcher.

Nah, it'll never sell.....

But look how this glass of red wine dosn't tip over even as I jump on the bed.
