New Microsoft search engine rivals Google

Microsoft's new search engine has caught up technically with market leader Google

It asked software engineers to test an early version of Microsoft's MSN Search service which can be tested at - http://beta.search.msn.com

The experts have already given MSN Search high marks for quick retrieval of data, for the quality of hits, the ability to respond to natural-language questions and possibility of finetuning the search.
