Facebook dumps Microsoft Web search results | Reuters

A Facebook company spokesperson quoted later in the article: "'We continue to have a great partnership with Microsoft in lots of different areas.'"

"Facebook Inc has stopped including results from Microsoft Corp's Bing search engine on its social networking site.

The move, confirmed by a company spokesperson, comes as Facebook has revamped its own search offerings, introducing a tool on Monday that allows users to quickly find past comments and other information posted by their friends on Facebook.

The decision may reflect the increasing importance that Facebook sees in Web search technology, a market dominated by rival Google Inc."
