Microsofts new search engine - is being slashdotted it seems, I tried to search for 'meuon' - a good vanity search to test a new engine, and got a typical MS-Error: EID: f:1658889542 - 1041:1041:10004:1059
HC: 71d61b14 I'm waiting so I can see what it shows up for Linux, will it be an impartial search engine?

Hmmm... I like its politics.

Maybe something changed between then and now because I just tried it and got good results, including a direct link to your page. You also get referenced under 'mueon' for the spelling challenged. As an aside, I discovered through this search engine that 'snex' is a mathemathical theorem. (Tho' we know better)

Funny, my Linux search comes up with the following domains in order:
linuxgazette.net linuxpipeline.com linuxbase.org lxr.linux.no
Linux.com did not make the first 3 pages.
On Google, I got: www.linux.org www.redhat.com www.linux.com www.linux-mandrake.com www.suse.com/us www.linuxjournal.com www.kernel.org
- And the "more useful every day" is funny, but shows up on everything.

meuon, that's precisely what makes it so funny. Unintended juxtaposition ;-)
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
