In news on Tuesday, MSN Search is planning to launch a social search service that will compete with Yahoo’s MyWeb. "Microsoft plans to unveil a question-and-answer social-search tool in the coming months" says Justin Osmer, senior product manager for MSN. "The feature will let users direct questions to a specific universe, such as a group of friends, rather than to get automated lists of results from a generic search engine.” In the article MSN’s Osmer also adds that Microsoft research has shown that generic search can’t answer 50 percent of the inquiries asked, and that the new MSN Social Search will be “one of the larger projects” for MSN Search.

The article also states that Microsoft is in talks to purchase Eureka, which is a social search pioneer that launched their product way ahead of its time. “Eurekster essentially combines generic search, though a partnership with Yahoo, with information culled from social-networking sites, such as Friendster.com. Thanks to Eurekster’s technology, a Friendster user searching for “skin care” would get results that reflect reviews and preferences of a predefined group, be it friends, neighbors, or another affinity group — say pregnant women.“
