Kumo - Microsoft's Answer to Google's search

The Microsoft and Google rivalry is into next level. We all know that Google has launched its browser Chrome to take on Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Google is advertising Chrome by providing users with the information how it is superior in performance to other browsers, speciall IE. Google is trying to snatch some market share of the IE in browser world. 

Microsoft is also not far behind. If Google is targetting browser-share, Microsoft is also trying to challenge the search-monopoly of Google. Microsoft is polishing its search service Live Search under code name "kumo". Some reports say that Microsoft is about to launch kumo. The official name of kumo is "Bing"

Following are some screen-shots of kumo (click on the images to make them larger).
