Miksi Bing laahaa pahasti Googlen perässä hakukonemarkkinoilla? Syynä voi olla ns. "pitkä häntä". Annetaan Microsoftin oman miehen selittää asia tarkemmin.
Mehdi, responding to a keynote host's observation that Microsoft was late to the Internet and search, said, "We missed the boat early on that the focus was about the long tail. We actually focused a lot on the head of the queries. ... It turned out the long tail was much more important."
For Microsoft, focusing on the head instead of the "long tail" meant that it returned popular queries but failed to satisfy less common queries. The long tail of queries ended up yielding more sizable traffic and therefore more money for Google over the last 11-plus years.

Microsoft myöhästyi alunperinkin koko internet-kehityksestä eikä koskaan päässyt kunnon liitoon. Onhan sen käyttöjärjestelmäkin pelkkä stand-alone-operation systeemi ja internet yllätti Gatesin housut kintuissa.
