Try a ms webapp and tell me they're not failing. Load up adcenter and try it out.


I prefer hotmail to Yahoo mail by far. I use gmail only through forwarding or pop.


Try outlook web access. Try searching in that. It's a ridiculously horrible experience.

Or try adcenter as I said. Watch those billion iframes with their individual spinner loaders going round for 10 minutes while it loads.


What is adcenter? Is that their search advertising. No doubt they've failed at search, and all it encompasses.

And certainly they've failed at other things that are online. But it's not fair to say they've failed at everything internet related.


adcenter is their answer to adwords/yahoo search marketing(overture).

I'm still in shock that the xbox doesn't have a browser. That's really scary. Either they are just amazingly arrogant and want everything locked down walled garden, or they are still in denial about the importance of the web, or they just don't get it.


Idk. Wii has a web browser and it sucks and nobody uses it. I purchased it out of curiosity, and what a waste.

Without a reasonable keyboard, there's not point. And reading the internet off the TV sucks. I'd rather surf on my Moto Q, and that's saying a lot because surfing on that tiny thing sucks ass.
