They don’t, or I’d use LiveSearch as much as possible. CashBack rebates are from the advertisers not Microsoft. If you go through CashBack to an advertiser’s website and make a purchase, you will get rebate from that advertiser. If you simply navigate through it without doing a thing, you won’t receive any payment. That’s why it does little to boost LiveSearch’s traffic, imo.

In addition to performing substantial ongoing in-house lexical and other work to improve accuracy and coverage, Inxight has done substantial subsequent optimization of the finite state machines and other “innards” of the system.

This significantly reduces computational load — very important to the billions of classified messages that Inxight processes in the intelligence space, as well as to publishers like Factiva that implement the Inxight technology.
