Microsoft Answers Google's Start Page with Start.com

Google is famous for its overly simplist home page. Where most portals try to cram as much information and advertising even diguising advertising as information onto your browsers viewport as possible, Google has traditionally shown almost nothing. A while back Google Labs introduced a customized home page ( http://www.google.com/ig ) that brought some localized, personalized information to the user that wants their browser to open to Google but provide a little content.

Now Microsoft has answered Google and is experiementing with it's own version with MSN Search as the focus. Now how similar Start.com is to Google's concept! Of course, just as Google has a blog, so must Start.com have a blog.
