[LIS-Forum] Microsoft's service to compete with Google Scholar

From Peter Suber's blog:

Microsoft Academic Search coming tomorrow The buzz has already started (1, 2, 3, 4), for tomorrow's release of Microsoft Academic Search, which will crawl academic journals, databases, and repositories. Peter Suber comments: I was one of many people Microsoft consulted about MAS. Don't think clone of Google Scholar. Think rival in the same space, competition that should --eventually-- crawl more content and offer more services to users.
