There is already an overabundance of ads on the internet. I block ads and when I go to someone else's computer and browse around, I'm absolutely amazed at how many ads there are. Flash ads that show stuff outside the flash container. Blinking banner ads, flash movies that play sound... Their browsing experience is horribly slow. The browser is slowed down by flash. The blinking is totally distracting. The ad based internet is a travesty.

Isn't this the place where microsoft can both innovate and hurt google ? Some ad replacement technology that replaces unusefull or distractring ads , with more usefull ads , and probably in less quantity. There biggest advantage over google here is that they don't depend on advertising money , so they can select add experience that is best for their users.
