Bob, the short-lived Microsoft assistant, has met his match. Windows Live, Microsoft’s search engine, now sports an edition anchored by Ms. Dewey. Bob, meet Ms. Dewey.

Before you start optimizing your websites for Ms. Dewey, know that the Ms. Dewey search engine is better suited for entertainment purposes rather than every day use. Like all other search engines, Ms. Dewey has a search field for you to enter your search terms. Click on the search button and Ms. Dewey retrieves the top three results along with a healthy dose of commentary.

For example, a search for “george bush” prompts Ms. Dewey to shout: “Solidfy the base. Stay the course. Leaders lead. There, now can I be president?” Since she rotates her comments, your mileage may vary during your search session. I’ll leave it up to you to track down the other search terms that trigger relevant comments.
