Microsoft Kumo on June 2

Microsoft’s rebranded search engine named “Microsoft Kumo” is expected to launch on June 2. The new engine is going to replace Windows Live Search in the hopes of giving it a snappier name and hopefully attract more users into the engine.

It is not yet clear what the new features of the new search engine of Kumo are, but it is speculated that the announcement would be made on June 2 in preparation for its planned summer advertisments.

Circulating screenshot and reports say that the search engine Kumo can be broken down by relevant categories. That sounds like Vivisimo.

It is not year clear how the new search engine would integrate with Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows XP or Windows 7. We have to expect that there is some kind of integration between the client and the Kumo engine.

Anyways, we’ll be updating you on the happenings on Microsoft Kumo.

    If it’s just the same thing, with a slightly jazzed up look and name, I am going to be really disappointed.

    Live Search does a relatively good job of getting my results, though it can be off on other queries. The Instant Answers it includes is awesome, and Image and Video search are the best of the web in my opinion.

    I want them to innovate and do something new, instead of just a catch-up and a stupid rebranding.
