Search Banter

MSN or Live (whatever you want) recently announced that they are disabling any advanced link search commands due to “mass automated usage.” This means you can’t use the link:[your website], linkdomain:, inurl: or any of the other advanced link funcionality at MSN anymore. It sounds like they are going to try and make it so that any manual queries can still be made, but for now everyone is being punished.

Hopefully MSN solves this problem fairly soon because it’s a tool we use frequently and I believe that by disabling this tool, MSN is only going to lose more users of thier search engine. Way to go MSN or Live (or whatever)!
