With great searching power, comes great searching responsibility

I tried MSN's new search this morning (yes, it was a vanity search first, and I am number 1) but wasn't too impressed, not least because it appeared slower than Google. However, Tim Ireland, being the sort of person who probably dreams about search engines, goes a little further than most of us and discovers that it seems to be not picking up websites associated with a certain company. And just to follow up on some of Tim's discoveries, I tried a few, none of which returned what you'd expect as the number 1 result - atrios blog, atrios eschaton, gmail. So, if you're out there and using blogspot, it might be a while before MSN users get to see anything you've written.

I think it's because exact phrase seems to be the default.
