Richard McManus reports that Microsoft is ready to partner with a "Tier 1 internet company" in order to take Google down a notch. He speculates it might be Yahoo!

I have zero inside information here, but I doubt it. All the numbers I see here show Yahoo! search stomping all over the big M. It would feel like a step backwards.

Tantalizingly, the report says of the company "suffice it to say that I'm 99% positive you're a customer".

My bet is Amazon/A9, with IAC/Ask Jeeves a second choice.

Maybe I'm completely wrong. We'll see. -m
