2007Microsoft’s Plan to Combat Google - Outright Bribery
16
2007
Microsoft’s new plan to boost its search engine usage is to pay “service credits” to enterprises which “promote” the use of Live Search in their organizations. Companies will earn $2 to $10 per computer which complies with Microsoft’s demands - including the removal of non-Microsoft IE toolbars, or setting Live Search as its homepage. Will it work? Perhaps. This sounds exactly like the kind of thing “An Enterprise” would go for - saving a few bucks at the expense of letting employees use what work best for them. Is it pathetic? Yes.
