Microsoft working on a new search engine named Kumo?

According to a source close to Microsoft, the Redmond company shall be rolling out a whole new search product later this year codenamed Kumo.

From what rumors believe, it is actually going to be the rebranded form of Microsoft Live Search which was expecting an upgrade for long. However, no source so far explains whether this is an individual search project of Microsoft or a replacement for Live Search.

A sneak-peak of Kumo, provided by AllthingsD, can be seen above.

If we claim to know Microsoft good enough, we are certain that 'Kumo' is just another codename for the search product while it is in its early phase of testing and the final product will definitely have a whole new name and look.

As for the search product itself, it looks to be quite innovative with a simple and clean look. All the search results are organized in a brilliant manner with an explorer pane on the left that helps the user in finding relevant information for the related search keyword.

Interesting, a source reveals that the search product is being tested out on the domain Kumo.com. But a quick visit to the web page in the browser returns a blank output.
