msn for students

Unlike Google or Yahoo, Askjeeves has better ability to find answers to direct plain language searches. MSN search has taken this one step further by adding Microsoft's Encarta reference tools to its features. Ask, what is the capital of Russia? You will get the right answer at the beginning of the result page. Questions like “What is the size of a Blue whale?” also brings in exact answer. No doubt, students will love this feature as it makes a lot easier for them to get specific answers to the questions related to facts and figures.

Yes I've seen and used this feature. Sometimes I want some quick answers then I either use wikipedia or MSN to look for the answer. I think microsoft should add more such tools to seek more users.

AskJeeves is still around? I thought that thing got shut down years ago - I can never seem to find any real answers online anyway.

I had not noticed this feature in Msn before. It will help students a bit but too much. To me this feature is just ok. Noting extra or amazing!
