Moriki MSN is looking for search champs for an upcoming conference. You apply, and if you win you’ll be given an all expense paid trip to Redmond to chat about MSN search with it’s developers.
Sounds like a unique opportunity, especially for coders to network.
I’m going to ruin my chance of getting picked right now by giving away my #1 suggestion:
Search is about convienence, put MSN search on the taskbar in the new version of windows and you will dominate Google.
But, you do need to make a few algorithm changes and clean up the interface a bit first. I can still push a new web page to #1 for my desired keywords in just a week’s time; that shouldn’t be happening.
