Microsoft Corp.'s MSN Internet division has developed a search toolbar that users can add to their Web browsers via a free download. The MSN Toolbar's main feature is its search form, from which users can perform Web searches. It also provides shortcuts to MSN services, such as the Hotmail e-mail service, the MSN Messenger instant messaging service and the My MSN customizable home page for the MSN Web portal.

MSN Launch New Internet Search Worldwide

MSN Launch New Internet Search Worldwide 02/01/2005 09:39 PM
MSN will launch their MSN Search Service in 25 markets and 10 languages worldwide, today.

The MSN Search engine has been in public beta testing since November 2004. The MSN Search team have been gathering feedback from a variety of different users in order to release their finely tuned search engine.

Through gathering this feedback the MSN Search team have been listening to customers throughout the whole development process. The end result is a search engine that allows customers to search specific tailored queries for their own needs. MSN Search allows users to search the Web, news, images, music, desktop and Microsoft Encarta. Users can query the search engine and receive more than 1.5 million answers from Encarta. Users can also type the name of an artist, song or album into MSN Search and get links to information on those songs and sample music. In indexing results for their search engine, MSN have Search bots that index daily or weekly to ensure results are accurate and up to date.

In a statement to associated press, Yusuf Mehdi, corporate vice president of the MSN Information Services & Merchant Platform division at Microsoft said “We’re committed to continuous improvement in the speed, precision and ease of use of our search service ... this built-from-the-ground-up version of MSN Search provides an infrastructure that enables us to rapidly innovate and give consumers precisely the information they’re looking for, no matter where it’s located"

MSN Search users can also use search tools that give them more control over how and where they search for information. Search builder allows people to extensively customize searches by emphasizing or de-emphasizing certain search criteria — such as a specific site or domain, country or region, or language — via a menu of adjustable onscreen dials. Search near me offers users the ability to tailor their search results to a specific geographic location to ensure results relevant to where they are or where they want to go.

Along with today's announcement, MSN have also released an updated Desktop Search Beta. The new version of the Toolbar Suite (02.00.0001.1203) fixes several bugs, stability and robustness issues and has fixed the virus pop ups problem.

MSN is planning to promote their newly launched search engine with TV adverts, web adverts and in magazines across the United States.

First search engine for podcasts set to
launch 04/14/2005 01:11 PM
TVEyes, a real-time broadcast search provider, will debut Podscope later this month, making every word within an Internet podcast searchable. Podscope will crawl the web to look for podcasts.  When it finds one, it will create an index against every word within the content.  Users will be able to search for a term or phrase and the program will generate a list of ranked results, providing the most relevant podcasts as well as links to play or download the content. TVEyes has been indexing both radio and television broadcasts since 1999. Podcasts are essentially downloadable radio programs distributed through RSS that can be put onto a digital media music player or iPod.

Yahoo Launch Y!Q, Contextual Search
Option 02/05/2005 09:46 PM
Search engine Yahoo has launched a new tool for users searching online called Y!Q. Similar to existing "related links" options, the tool offers users pages of a similar context to the one the user is viewing. The service is already in operation on Yahoo! News, with examples of stories on George Bush linking to sites on the American president.

Yahoo is offering the service for Internet Explorer users (<a href="http://yq.search.yahoo.com/splash/embed.html">downl oad</a>) and Firefox users (<a href="http://yq.search.yahoo.com/splash/firefox.html">dow nload</a>), letting them do contextual searches without going to Yahoo. Yahoo is also offering code to allow webmasters to <a href="http://yq.search.yahoo.com/splash/embed.html">embed </a>Y!Q in their pages.

Yahoo's new tool is another option for searchers who are becoming startlingly similar to gleeful children receive far too many gifts at Christmas. Yahoo's most recent financial report noted that ad revenues from searches were proving more profitable and important. It, like the other search companies, wants more users and wants them keep on coming back; the problem is a complex one.

It’s difficult to have a system that gains strong user loyalty on search engines; the most successful so far has been Google's simple and effective search results. Google still maintains its 60% market share and is by far the largest of a growing pack. Google today moved their local search tool to the front page of the site; although still only in beta form, the tool has proved successful and effective at return accurate results. As if to do one better, Amazon's version of local search on A9.com adds pictures of shop fronts and streets. Expect more presents from the search companies soon.

Google To Launch Desktop Search Tool 05/19/2004 02:57 AM
I assume this will surprise all of about three or four people who haven't been paying attention, but Google is preparing to laun ch a desktop search tool that will let you search through your own hard drive (in exchange, I assume, for contextual ads). The press will make a big deal about this and how it's a way for them to challenge Microsoft's Longhorn offering, which will have greatly improved local search. I'm not sure it's that interesting. Longhorn is so far off that it's really not worth speculating whether or not this product actually competes with it or not. The more interesting question is, if this local search tool involves contextual ads, will the privacy folks start complaining again that Google is now snooping through your hard drive?

Bit Torrent : An Analysis

Bit Torrent : An Analysis 12/19/2004 03:10 PM
Hardy news site, The Register, recently published a detailed analysis of the file sharing protocol Bit Torrent. Bit Torrent has received attention in the main stream news after reports that it was carrying as much as 50% of all peer 2 peer (p2p) traffic, which in tern amounted to a massive 30% of all the traffic on the internet. The paper, by Dr. Johan Pouwelse, examines the protocol and looks especially at one of the largest bit-torrent hubs, Suprnova.org. He examines how just 20 moderators solve the problem of fake files, something that plagues the traditional file sharing networks like Kazaa.

Dr Powelse notes that the major problems facing hubs like suprnova are fakes and maintaining hub availability. The availability of files on bit torrent is based on a centralised system; without it, the network fails as users cannot access the trackers. Decentralising bit torrent has already begun - Suprnova have started a project called "Exeem" which apparently has 5,000 beta testers trialling it, and has an ultimate aim of taking the best of Kazaa (a decentralised network) and merging it with Bit Torrent. Decentralisation removes the issue of poor availability at the tracker end, yet0 it also provides more scope for fake files and a reduction in data integrity at the user end.

The paper concludes that bit-torrent needs to evolve to create incentives to users to seed files. Bit-torrent as a protocol is a system that’s here to stay; it enjoys more and more usage from more main stream content providers. Yes, there is a lot of illegitimate use of the protocol, but unlike Kazaa, these users should not be allowed to over shadow the usefulness to legitimate users of the bit torrent protocol.

[Update] Since this article was published, Suprnova has shutdown as a hub for torrents. Although this cannot be confirmed, the shutdown is very likely related to legal action from the Hollywood against tracker websites; earlier in the week many other sites were taken down. The effectiveness of the takedowns could be massive; the paper below notes that when on the Suprnova mirrors went offline during their monitoring period, they saw a massive reduction in the number of users downloading files through the site.

It's the torrent, stupid 12/22/2004 01:29 AM
Xeni Jardin: Mark Pesce rants about the recent shutdowns of BitTorrent supersites Suprnova.org and TorrentBits.com.

Hey, Hollywood! Can you feel the future slipping through your fingers? Do you understand how badly you've screwed up? You took a perfectly serviceable situation - a nice, centralized system for the distribution of media, and, through your own greed and shortsightedness, are giving birth to a system of digital distribution that you'll never, ever be able to defeat. In your avarice and arrogance you ignored the obvious: you should have cut a deal with SuprNova.org. In partnership you could have found a way to manage the disruptive change that's already well underway. Instead, you have repeated the mistakes made by the recording industry, chapter and verse. And thus you have spelled your own doom.

It's said that the best sequels are just like the original, only bigger and louder. Ladies and gentlemen, prepare yourselves for one hell of a crash. This baby is now fully out of control.

Bit Torrent question

Bit Torrent question 04/09/2004 10:30 PM
Bit Torrent and the ability to download everything in one click (is this the end of Direct TV, Tivo and the music business?!).

Used BitTorrent a little bit when it first came out and was a bit underwhelmed. It didn’t work, there weren’t a lot of places to find files, etc.

I decided to take another look at it when a designer friend of mine was telling me that he has the latest version of every single piece of design software on his Mac compliments of bit torrent (yes, I know it’s wrong… not the point I’m trying to make, the point is coming :-).

Part I: I installed bit torrent and immediately noticed an amazing new trend (prob. not new to all of you) of people posting dozens of albums in one RAR file for download. Huge file sizes in the 500 to 4,000 meg size range. The last season of seven seasons of Southpark, every Nirvanna album and here is another file with every Howard Stern radio show from March in one file.

In one click you grab one really well organized, clean and deep sets of files—scary.

Part II: A couple of month ago I got the Gateway Connected DVD player. For $195 it connects via WiFi to my desktop and I can hit the My Music or My Videos button on the remote control and pull up those directories on my hard drive (in the other room).

Part III: Today I moved into my new apartment in Santa Monica and was faced with the standard $100 month cable/dish bill and I’m thinking “dang, I only watch less then a half dozen TV shows and they are all here on bit torrent… maybe I should save the $1,200 a year and just download the shows and watch them via my Gateway Connected DVD player?”

The Point/Question: How soon before you’ll be able-with one click-download every prime-time TV show or last year’s top 500 CDs in one click?!

(Note: This is not a trick question, I have yet to find a file containing that much content—however, I did find a file with last weeks top 100 singles that someone put together in one nice package).

Microsoft sent DMCA takedown notices to our two webhosts, one of which was just linking to a torrent file on another server. We've stood up to these kinds of legal threats before (see the Grey Tuesday protests), but we decided not to bother this time, because we started this site primarily as a demonstration and to that end it's already been a huge success.

Microsoft builds a better Bit Torrent

Microsoft builds a better Bit Torrent 06/17/2005 03:18 PM
Researchers at Microsoft's computer science lab in Cambridge have developed a peer-to-peer filesharing system that they say overcomes the scheduling problems associated with existing distribution protocols such as Bit Torrent.

The researchers claim download times are between 20-30 per cent faster, using their network coding approach, than on systems that only code at the server, and between 200 and 300 per cent faster than distributing un-encoded information.
