Google in cahoots with Microsoft

Looks like Google is doing a Microsoft-related search and probably Microsoft is paying them for this special search feature.

cahoots

Try and visit www.google.com/microsoft.html and see for yourself.

PageRank: 8/10

From the Inquirer:

… as further proof that the two are definitely secretive partners in crime, you can get to the search page through Microsoft (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?linkid=23818). Kind of strange when you take into consideration Big Steve Ballmer’s mindset on Google, isn’t it?

Sarzuela, what?

  3. lol. google + microsoft = weird logo. :P

  4. Microsoft technology is even more widely used than Linux, BSD and OS X (combined even), so _practically_ speaking, why shouldn’t Google offer MS-specific searches even without MS’ prodding?

  5. I think this is an internal arrangement between the two. MS could be paying Google MS-filtered searches for marketing, political, economic and other PR-related content.
