I'm the co-host... awesome!

Here's inside scoop on Max being on crutches... he was in New York to film the Natal segment on Jimmy Fallon and got his butt kicked by a virtual ball. He slipped on it and broke his pride--big time! True story.

... errr... welcome back, Max! Wink

Max, you got it all wrong. I took a poll of my friends and we all agree that we click right past the ads. If I search for Geico, I will not click the "highlighted" ad, I will click the first link which will be geico.com. Those highlighted ads almost seem scamish.

Although...if Microsoft and Google both have "sponsored ads" it must be worthwhile, I just do not see how.

Ahhh yes, a sample of friends... the quick "BS" test.

Granted it is quite possible I am wrong, but as long as I am, I shall assume most of your friends are tech savvy like you and would consider themselves as such. But riddle me this: would your mother know it's a "scamish" ad? Would your little sister? How about most of your classmates that believe "MySpace" is the epitome of technology?

Now you understand who makes up most of the internet? Wink

Ads on the top of search results only work on the feeble-minded. Every Jedi should know this.

FEEDBACK request: Walk around campus more, talk to more people. Those are fun. Drop things from buildings, wait that's Letterman. Also, the interesting MS shop talk is good. More MS research stuff. AI stuff.

Thanks
