There is another point to consider here, one of choice and variety. If we advocate the use of a single format provided by a single entity, there is a danger of creating a monster with a controlling influence. A monopoly could empower the provider to name their own price as it were and sponsored results would become the only results on offer. Google powers many search facilities as a back end provider anyway. Why provide more power to their elbow? Besides we have to think of all users and if everything looked the same we are heading into a very grim borg like world of collective uniformity. ugh....viva la difference! smiles Paul Davis
