Microsoft’s interesting new search engine
By Alex Zaharov-Reutt
Want to see what the search engine of the future might look like? Microsoft has it up and running now. And while the results are from Microsoft, and not Google, which might make you want to not use it, at the very least, this is a search engine you need to see!
Called ‘Ms. Dewey’, the search engine features the talented young Miss Janina Gavankar who, in an Adobe Flash environment, is trying to entice you to enter queries, and be entertaining at the same time. She plays the role of the sweet librarian, and shows a range of facial expressions, from pouting in a seductive style, to smiling, to frustration, to showing boredom and tapping the computer screen to get your attention if you haven’t entered in any queries after a while.
It presently offers no real benefits over just using Google, but it’s certainly novel and fun. How long the magic will last is another issue, and some of the actions she performs, like trying to lassoo you in or catch you with a fishing line seem to get a bit repetitive.
Entering in ‘naughty’ words, which is much like looking for their meanings in a dictionary when you were a kid, also produces some interesting comments from the lovely Ms Dewey.
It’s a great attempt at trying to be different, and points the way to much more interactive websites in the future. Definitely worth a look and a play around with!

Wow after 60 seconds I got really bored by the annoying antics of the cyber character. This is nothing more than magic 8 ball with a series of fixed actions, maybe a pull string talking Elmo would be more entertaining if you can imagine.. It’s like talking on a public phone and having some really impatient person banging on the booth and cracking jokes. This idea may have been lifted from Speilbergs A.I. for those that caught that one six years ago.

While Google, Yahoo and Microsoft search billions of Web pages, blog search sites typically focus on between 10 million and 20 million blogs. But, in many ways, the upstarts are as different from each other as they are from the giants.

OK, so you’re looking for alternatives to surgical breast augmentation. You really want to enhance and/or enlarge your breasts out of dissatisfaction, feelings of inadequacy, or hey -maybe you just want to fill your clothes or your pretty bras out more alluringly! You, like many women are asking the question “do breast enhancement pills really work?” Larger breasts seem to the elusive object of desire for so many these days, especially with increasing numbers of women getting surgical breast augmentation, it’s almost become a status quo.
But you are not looking for the round, unmoving, and sometimes very artificial look of breast implants. It used to be if you were in this boat, you were really just relegated to living with the breasts you had, and learning to like them. Well, now, with the advent of modern science and nutraceutical technology, there are some very viable and effective alternatives to surgical breast augmentation. So, that brings us to that same question, do breast enhancement pills really work?

The penis enlargement pills method can be done in two different ways. The first way is to combine pills with penis exercises. These exercises can be found on the internet free of charge or you can purchase access
to a website showing you exercises such as penis advantage or matters of size DVD. The exercises involved are typically jelqing(a form of milking) and stretches. These exercises take between 30 minutes to a more advanced 1.5 hours.
