While I appreciate the content and tests put forth in this insightful article, I think a check was missing and this is Adwords/Adsense.
When this is thrown into the equation, Google fails miserably as I do not find too much plagiarized content (at least content not providing adequate hyperlinks) without Google Adwords/Adsense on them in Google Search, HOWEVER when these Google Ads are present plagiarized content on Google searches increases measurably.
I know this because my articles that represent 14 hour days and 30 years of work show up often in these Google Searches, with Google NEVER returning emails to correct this problem. Sadly this search engine denies the original and updated content these same ads, go figure on honesty nowadays

Sometimes re-branding is part of repairing one's image. There have been many examples of it working throughout marking and PR history, the question is whether its the right approach for this case.

While I agree they need to more to repair their overall image, the truth is that most people don't really care if it is Microsoft so long as it works, this is why they have the lion's share of OS installs.

Instead of spending hundreds of millions of dollars on re-branding Live, Microsoft should instead focus on fixing it's corporate image. I know too many people that refuse to use Bing simply because they passionately hate Microsoft. Not so sure how well this marketing blitz will work for poor old MS.

I don't know, I think abandoning the Live brand was a good move. The name had become synonymous with bad search. Sometimes moving to a new brand is the best thing you can do.

it seems like Microsoft should stick with one name for their search engine functionality so that it has a chance to turn into a recognizable brand
