Very interesting
how dismissive Gates is of Google considering they've amassed such a large cash reserve in such a short period of time. One has to wonder how much of that money Gates thinks should be his? And although I'm not familiar with the MS Search API vs. Google's API, I have to say that Google delivers better results, and people seem to like developing thing for Google's web services (Somethingabout Craig's List and Google Maps comes to mind).
