MSN Search & Research
I spent a couple days this week with the MSN Search team and MS Research looking at what they are doing with search, and how they plan to compete in the Top-3 dominated search market (Google, Yahoo, MSN). Over all I was very impressed with what they are doing and what their goals are - although I can't share either of those things due to the NDA I signed.
What I can do though is point you to some public resources that they shared with us.
