So, Google vs Yahoo again. For the future put Microsoft in the race too. Two of the many new initiatives that Microsoft is taking right now are "Search Engine" and "Stopping Spam".

Well, I can't see Microsoft winning any of these without demonstrating the effect in their own products. We all know how Microsoft Site Search sucks and speaking of Spam, I almost closed down my hotmail.com account only due to the amount of spam.
