Microsoft Celebrity Search is cool
Microsoft February 7th, 2008
Never been a huge fan of Microsoft’s search services, but I have to say that a new beta product they’ve rolled out is totally awesome.
It’s called ‘xRank’ (which sounds like some kind of porn search engine), and it ranks celebrities according to their current ‘level of fame’, based on the number of searches for their names performed in MSN/Live search – for example:

Great service, but yet again someone needs their ass kicked in the product naming department of Microsoft…
