Microsoft.com to Searchers: Get Lost

No matter how you slice it, Microsoft.com's internal search engine blows chunks. Just try searching for something, and you'll see what I mean. Which makes it amusing that Stefanie Olsen of News.com reports that Microsoft is trumpeting their new, new internal search engine as the easiest ever. Not so, says I.

It's pretty sad when Google does a better job of searching Microsoft's corporate site than MS's own search engine. What's funny, though, is when a MS rep even admits it:

"Searching Microsoft.com was a real problem; using Google would sometimes get you better results," said Matt Rosoff, an analyst at Directions on Microsoft.

As they say, the truth hurts.
