There are times when Microsoft seems like one of those B-movie monsters which cannot be stopped by any reasonable means, and here we have another example: embrace, extend, exterminate applied to search services. Given that search services are both fundamental to our lives on the Web, and [justifiably] fundamental to the directions Microsoft sees as useful for operating systems development, the unspeakable force may well be about to meet the inedible object.

Somehow, for some obscure reason I cannot elucidate with any precision, I do not think this bodes any good.
