GigaOm picks up on something the Berkman Center’s David Weinberger noticed awhile back: Microsoft Bing’s travel service looks a lot like Kayak.com. GigaOm includes comments from a lawyer:
When I showed the two to Stephen J. Roe, a patent and software copyright attorney in Madison, Wis., he was similarly taken aback. “If you debrand it, and remove anything that mentions Microsoft or Kayak,” Roe said, “it would be really tough to decide if you were seeing Kayak or Bing.”
The Berkman Center’s David Weinberger had a unique take among the avalanche of It’s-pretty-cool-but-won’t-kill-Google Bing reviews — he says Microsoft’s new search engine bites Kayak.com’s style.
