Search, after all, is a key to advertising, which, so far, is the only way to make money in the media economy of the Net. And so, to thrive in the future, Microsoft decided to conquer Yahoo now.

In an entry entitled Day 407, Gerry McCann appealed for people to download Madeleine posters from the Find Madeleine website to take with them on their travels this summer. And in an entry written the day before Madeleine's fifth birthday on May 12, he wrote, "We will do everything to try and ensure Madeleine does not spend another birthday separated from her family."
