MSN Live Search May Have A Handle On Search, But It’s Grip On Data Mining Is Slipping
Writing by Nick Stamoulis on Saturday, 21 of April , 2007 at 7:11 am
MSN has recently cut off its linkdomain feature causing a big stir among users of Marketleap and other link popularity tools. Don’t worry. Your link popularity isn’t falling. You just can’t measure it.
The problem is MSN is having data mining problems. That is, some unruly people are using the linkdomain function to mine data about web domains from MSNs database. Which makes me wonder, Just what is all of that money Microsoft is making going to? I mean, Bill Gates didn’t get to be the richest man in the world by falling behind the competition. It could, however, be a clue why MSN is the third most popular search engine and not the first. Sidebar: If the gods can’t control evil then what chance do the rest of us have?
Google and Yahoo don’t seem to have the problem with data mining. Or, at least, they have discovered how to deal with it effectively. I’d like to see MSN get a handle on this issue so that you all don’t have to wait to see which sites are linking into yours any longer than you have. It’s nerve wracking trying to run a business without the proper information. MSN needs to get a grip.

P.S. If anyone has any information on MSNs problem and how long it might take to fix it, I’d like to know. Any insiders want to share a secret?
