Here are a few documents that outline the DC government’s plan to collect information about DC residents.
The media may have an inherent biased while writing stories about Microsoft’s new search engine bing.com Read this latest post about bing in the New York Times.
You hear it in the newsrooms or among media types in the break room, everyone is in love with bing. “Did you check it out?…Yeah I like the new clean design.”
If you ask me the search results look pretty much the same to me. In fact there’s a rumor that Microsoft passively collected search data from Google’s own web site to get their R&D off the ground. Bing has a few cash incentive programs to entice new users but that’s not the point.
The Google search algorithm is special in the sense that it allows for a level playing field as far as what’s popular and what’s not. There are no gatekeepers and a mother in Ohio can make a video that appears at #1 on the Google.com search results for funny political cat humor.
The media hate this.
Microsoft on the other hand has a clear track record of sucking up to the business establishment. They did it with the record label companies and they could be a huge game changer in the highly profitable search engine ad-based market.
Wrap that along with the industry conventional wisdom that blames Google News for the decline in print based ad-revenue and you can see why media elites are rooting for a Microsoft win.
