Pork Chop Date
We used to joke about a particular person being so ugly their parents would have to hang a pork chop around their neck to attract a date.

That's kind of the same feeling I get about Bing. Microsoft has to pay the declining, distant second place in web search to use their technology to get people to use it.

Maybe MS should try the pork chop.

Their desktop/server aspect is good, Internet/on-line is a loss.  B.O.F.H. | 07/29/09
Agree, on line is where they need to invest  No_Ax_to_Grind | 07/29/09
Heres the problem: both Yahoo and Microsoft have been losing share.  B.O.F.H. | 07/29/09
Sounds like a very good reason to combine them.  No_Ax_to_Grind | 07/29/09

So that is why Google is in a panic?  No_Ax_to_Grind | 07/29/09
