It’s common knowledge that Microsoft Live Search blows/way underperforms. As mentioned originally on BccList.com here, it will be interesting to see what happens to the world of online advertising if Microsoft ever delivers a somewhat decent search engine product.

I guess my point was that Microsoft’s attempt at a leaf graphic sucked a$$ like their search engine.
