MSN Offers Search Macros

You might be familiar with Macros if you have ever used them to make life easier on Word or other software tools. Microsoft is now offering Macros for use on the MSN Search Engine.
Search Macros are a feature of Live Search that make results more relevant for a given search topic. This is done by easily using, creating and sharing customized sets of search engine rules.

Technically speaking, a Search Macros are custom, user-created groups of search operators built with the Live Search query language (see 'Symbol reference' and 'Keyword reference' in our help section). Macros are stored on our servers and are available to any user on live.com. All macros can be used by anyone completely anonymously.
Users can create their own macros or they can use search macros created by others. The Microsoft Gadgets website provides a growing list of pre-made macros you can use. (via Search Engine Watch)
