The greatest benefit of Kumo, which Microsoft is lauched, because it brings its new search engine market Kumo is not the technology, but Microsoft ‘ size and sale.

Kumo, the code name for the following Microsoft ’search phase , is scheduled to be released Thursday under the nickname of the heap in the conference Digitals things in San Diego. Lost in all the technical minutiae (improved functionality of user interface, research more appropriate based on preferences made to order, etc..) Is Microsoft ’s ability to shift the hand around the launch of its financial and political muscle .

The time I checked Microsoft was three times the size of Google (Microsoft weighs in at over $ 60 billion competed with Google ’s $ 21.7 billion). Microsoft also has tens of thousands of associates who actively sell products from Microsoft and a host and a take-no-crossed Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) that these associates bring to market.

The simple fact is that the conduct of technology has never been Microsoft ’s strong suit Microsoft ’s secret sauce is its intuitive sales and its persistence. And nowhere is that intuitive marketing and persistence from being applied in a mode stronger than Kumo.

The blogosphere is full of buzz this week around new features and possibilities of research that could see the light of day in Kumo, but Microsoft ’s strength in the battle with Google, as I have stated before, its financial and , to save much more, his political muscle (aka cruelty of) as it moves to capture a larger piece of the pie search.

Remember, there were few people who believed that Netscape was invincible until Microsoft has concentrated all its guns to blow the pioneer to this browser out of the water. Now Netscape is a certificate in the history of computing.

Don ‘t m’obtiennent false. I ‘m not indicating Google is doomed to become an apostille in the history of computing. But Google ’s forces have been dissipated in the mass hysteria that is the search engine Google. Google has not rewritten the laws of physics or the immutable principles of capitalism.

If the history of computing has shown two things, it can never discount the ability of a market leader to fall under the weight of its own success and never-never absolutely Microsoft discount ’s ability to become a strength of the market in what it chooses to do.

President Steve Ballmer, the most fierce competitor of Microsoft’s overall any President in any business, is intensely focused on obtaining a larger piece of the pie of research and will use a part of Microsoft ‘endless pile of s cash and political power of doing business épongent market share higher research.

Katherine Egbert, an analyst for Jefferies & Company, off a research note on Tuesday saying that Microsoft is likely contemplating an association to expand its search for Kumo prospects. Egbert said that Microsoft has registered a limited liability limited liability (LLC) in Delaware, she called approach often taken a week or two prior acquisitions or joint ventures.

Microsoft does not contemplate an association to amplify Kumo. It contemplates many, many associations. And many of these associations will emerge during this year and beyond.

And remember, Ad Age has reported that Microsoft is focused balance to start the advertising campaign of $ 80 million to $ 100 million to promote Kumo. My bet is that the number is conservative provided all the pieces of the software giant that will be increased to propel Kumo in the market. Looking for more than a few Windows 7 – Kumo connections.

Also, these tens of thousands of associates who make money when they sell software and services for Microsoft to make the best use to evangelize (read sales) Kumo. These cases are about earning money. And nobody has won more money in the history of computing for himself and his associates as Microsoft.

Ultiamtely, Microsoft ‘the greatest advantage of Kumo s is the size of sumo wrestlers and intuitive sales compared to the status of class wrestler Google ‘ feather weight of s in both categories.
