Sure, the search may be improved - but that doesn't mean people will flock to it. I think Microsoft needs to spend some time improving the “Windows Live” brand.

Unfortunately, while searching for my own name, three of the results are bad: * inexistent, old domain name which just redirects to the main page of another site is in the top 3 * link to another site is to a page in a frameset of an old site which is just there for archiving purposes - no link to the real site (www.domain.com) is anywhere to be found in the results, and this is my most important site (!!) * links to LinkedIn only point to directory pages and not the profile page with short, named address (linkedin.com/in/name)Too many mistakes for me to consider switching.. it's a pity.
