Microsoft makes Live Search for videos come to life

Until now, Microsoft's Live Search engine has not been my first or second choice for anything, but it is now. The new Live Search for video knocks Yahoo and Google into a cocked hat. Try it. Just run a search, then hover your mouse cursor over any video that takes your fancy....

Notice also that you can sort results by relevance or by date, and if you just want videos that are, say, more than 20 minutes long, you can do that too.

It would be nice if Live Search Video was a great illustration of the power of Silverlight. It isn't: it's done in Adobe Flash.
