Is microsoft setting itself up for another antitrust case?
Those of us who remember the word Netscape will also remember the browser wars. In those times internet explorer was a piece of biological excretion and the Netscape browser was the most popular internet surfing tool of that time. Then microsoft spliced internet explorer into its operating system and set itself up for one of the most publicised antitrust cases of this century.
The most popular prize on the Internet right now is search. Microsoft has tried various ways of claiming that prize. They have tried a Yahoo takeover and Livesearch, both of which didn't succeed. Now they have brought out Bling.
Bling seems to be gaining a lot of popularity according to the news snippets I have been seeing and in blog articles they are getting ambivalent reviews. I even tried it myself once. Not by choice and that is what brings me to the question I asked in the title.
