It looks like MSN is feeling the heat brought on by Yahoo and Google and is now trying to get back some users.

Not only is MSN working on many new features (like the whole Windows Live product line up), but now they are offering people prizes to come and search with MSN.

Acording to iafrica.com, at http://www.msnsearchandwin.com/, users that enter one of over 1200 certain keywords will be shown a link in the sponsor list that will let them claim a prize. There are supposedly gift certficates, donations, and even a Sony TV that will be given away over the next 3 months

In my mind this is a neat idea, but I will still be searching with Google. It is what I have always used and I love the clean, fast interface that so many others love as well. But this being said, I am sure many will switch to MSN, at least for awhile, to try and win big!
