Apparently MSFT is trying to compete with them by giving away blogging
services.  Apparently this administration does not view giving away
something as predatory pricing.  How can they when there is no price?

SAN FRANCISCO - Like so many other 20-somethings hoping to mine the Internet
gold rush of the late 1990s, Mena Trott was thrown for a humbling loop by
the dot-com bust, yet still craved stardom. Her unassuming husband, Ben,
just wanted another computer programming gig in Silicon Valley's depressed
job market. The couple's odd chemistry cooked up Six Apart Ltd., a startup
that has helped popularize the "blogging" craze, with millions of people
worldwide maintaining online personal journals that dissect everything from
politics to poultry.
