So MSN now does search. I was going to skip commenting on it, since it's not very interesting until we see some advertising plans or something else that's actually new and different.
There was discussion on John Battelle's search blog on how Google's website was actually showing up in some searches, suggesting that some results were "hand-tweaked".
A search for "canadian voip" returns Google as the #1 hit. I know that I and others have linked to Google searches, especially with title tags of "Google Search for Canadian VoIP", so that may help explain it.
There are a handful of other searches where Google.com is either the #1 hit or somewhere in the top 10. Ouch...I think there will be some "hand tweaking" to remove results that include Google.com...
