If you read threadwatch, you must be prepared to accept the fact that you will often not agree with the posts ...
... (imagine the controversy of this blog, times 10).
Nick W gets a good conversation going by suggestiing that MSN Search's "marketing and attempts to connect just suck" and "my gut feeling is that they've blown it".
Come off it! They only launched it a few weeks ago and they have 5 years of catching-up to do. I know for a fact that they are still working on refining the search engine and have efforts to reach out to the search marketing community. It may take a few months for them to gain traction, but don't write them off in the first inning (remember the Red Sox vs the Yankees?).
