Bing 2.0 could hit the web as early as next week, according to tweets from Microsoft employees.

Yahoo! has rolled out changes to Yahoo! Search, Yahoo! Mail and Yahoo! Messenger, including some new social networking features.

The CEO of Yahoo! says that Yahoo! was never a search company.

Continuing its multimillion dollar marketing campaign for Bing, the company's new "decision making engine," Microsoft has launched a contest that challenged users to come up with the best Bing jingle, or "Bingle."

Rumors about a Microsoft/Yahoo! deal got a refresh late last week when it was reported that the two companies were discussing a possible search deal.

Microsoft has posted a blog detailing how its new decision making engine did in its first month online.

Microsoft’s “decision making engine” will soon lose its beta tag in Australia, Canada, China, Japan, and the UK.

Research from Comscore reports that Microsoft latest search endeavor, Microsoft Bing, experienced slow and steady growth during its second week online.

It looks like Google may be a little more worried about Microsoft’s new decision making engine than its Chief Executive Officer is willing to let on.

Reports today suggest that the Justice Department is stepping up its investigation into Google’s Book Search settlement.
