via SearchEngineGuide, I notice the following pro-Ballmer commentary snipped from a poster on WebmasterWorld:
Let's not forget that Microsoft also has the budget to severley [sic] damage Google in the advertising realm. They will take a loss for years to kill a company like Google. Don't be surprised if they go in and offer companies like AOL and Ask Jeeves to use their PPC products and provide them rates that Google couldn't fathom. They can go out and offer publishers ridiculous rates to steal them from Google.
OK, let's take the search referral market share numbers from the previous post and add AOL's + Ask's numbers (total, about 3.5%) to MSN's.
The new numbers would be:
Google 50%
Yahoo 22%
MSN 13.5%
Somebody's crystal ball is cracked.
