[Web4lib] MS Windows Live Book Search

[Hankinson, Andrew]

It seems like everyone's favorite punching-boy these days is Microsoft.
Some of it is justified, some of it is not, but honestly, they keep
setting themselves up for it. If there ever was a dynamic, high-profile
and useful ORIGINAL idea that came out of their shop lately, I would
love to hear about it.

Microsoft: 'Someone's already been to where we take you today.'
