Microsoft Pays You to Search

By Anthony | May 21, 2008

In an attempt to lure people to its Search Engine, Microsoft announced a plan that will give a rebate to searchers who search for products through Live Search and make their purchase at a qualifying vendor.

Not sure if something like this is enough to boost Microsoft Live Search up from third place in the Search Engine war, but I think it is a pretty cool idea.

  2. I doubt it will help Microsoft very much, but you have to admit that it is a pretty cool way to get people interested in the Microsoft search engine.
