It looks live Live.com, which is the MSN Search Engine, finally decided to get their head out of their ass and include our website www.blindmonkeymedia.com in its search inclusion.

That is one thing about the MSN Search Engine that is very unusual, especially considering who owns it. Why is that search engine so slow at picking up new websites and page upgrades or additions? You would think that having the mighty Microsoft power and resources behind it that it could at least own 40% or more of all internet searches instead of just a bit over 17%.

I am currently writing a nifty little article about it so make sure to come and check out our marketing articles pages after March 15th at: http://www.blindmonkeymedia.com/marketing-articles

So here is the deal; below are some popular movie quotes that have been changed a bit to become famous SEO quotes.

If you can name the movie each quote came from and explain what they are about you got yourself a job interview and it will give you a extra 10 points in our interview rating scale.
